To open a trunk when there is no key and the cable release is broken, it is necessary to remove the back part of the rear seat. In some vehicles there is a small part of the bench seat back that will pull down to access the trunk.

On a 2000 Cavalier the trunk release lever does not open the trunk and after tracing it back saw that the cable is not connected on inside of trunk and need help figuring out how to connect it?
On the inside of the trunk lid there is a little plastic black box that attaches to the release mechanism on the bottom of the trunk lid (where the lid meets the latch). On one side of this black box, there is a cable running out that runs up to the key. On the other side, you can either attach an auto trunk pop solenoid, or a release cable that runs inside your car to a handle. There is a rectangular cover on the black box that you will need to pry up with a screwdriver. Pry this lid open, and you will see a little orange thing in there. Take your cable and place it inside of this orange "hook". The cable has a ball on the end of it, and the ball on the cable needs to sit inside of the orange "hook". Then, make sure the cable is properly seated inside of the little black box, and push the cover closed. Make sure the cover snaps all the way around, or the cable might fall out again.

If the actuator cable breaks then the key and the interior release both don't work. It needs to be replaced. If your trunk has a manual release inside then you can pull the back seats down and reach in to release it. Then undo one screw in the interior handle and pop out the plastic covering on the trunk. Then you will be able to see the cables. Good luck. Check out youtube.
