Normally I am very careful and meticulous with the cars. Today I was tired and annoyed. So I took a mallet and a drift and just wacked the tumbler in with the key all the way to the left. Rock broke up and trunk opened.

All is well. No ill effects.
How did the quartz pebble get in there? I am surprised you broke the quartz with no damage. Quartz is pretty tough.
