On my '84 300CD, my '84 300D and my wifes '83 300D, regardless of the door lock positions, the key will open the trunk lock.
You have to turn the key to the left into the horizontal position, then turn it a quarter turn further and press the button while holding the key in position. You can feel the latch engage.
When I first bought the '84 300D it wouldn't open at all without the key. But that was becuase the PO's mechanic (who had just fixed the trunk lock) put the vacuum actuator on incorrectly.
