I was using the lever to open the trunk and it broke off in my hand. My question is, how do I remove/service this and is there any way to replace the lever with a jury-rigged solution? Thanks in advance for any help.

Id say leave it off... I bought my car with a broken lever, and when someone broke into my car, it was the one thing that kept them from stealing my subs. the box was too big to fit through the back seat and they couldnt pop the trunk obviously
