Default Locked Key in Trunk

So I locked my Key in the Trunk. All my other doors were locked when I did this. I had the Campus police open my car, which was quite the task because of the Lexus security features, but we cannot get the trunk open because my car is in Theft Mode. Is there any way to access the trunk when the car is in Lock Down/ Theft mode.

I did the same thing...had to have a guy come make a key on site and open the trunk. Had to pull off the cylinder and key it accordingly.

You have to remove the rear seat. It takes about 15-20 min.

I just got back on CL, wish I would have seen this earlier. My dad brought me the spare key. I'm just hoping that my doors are still pretty tight since the campus police had to open them a bit to hook the lock actuator when they were trying to get my key.

Again, thanks for all the help guys
