I had the same problem on my '91 vert. If you will disassemble the lock on your other e30 you will see how you can get to the latch. Note the screw in the photo. This is where i drilled a hole big enough for a coat hanger wire to actuate the lever arm and open the trunk. After you get it open, remove the electric actuator and your lock should open manually with the key. Don't close the trunk lid until you are sure the key will open it. If it doesn't you can always use the coat hanger wire to open it. I put a small self-tapping screw in mine to fill the hole.
