Now I can't open the trunk cause half of the key is still stuck inside. How much would this cost to fix?

if you can crawl through your backseat and get into the trunk-just grab the little flat bar thats on the other side of the keyhole inside the trunk with pliars and twist it clockwise or counter clockwise-this will open your trunk-the key tumbler is only held on by a big metal clip-pop it off with a screwdriver and take it out-go to an autozone or other parts store and the new tumbler is only $10-15 and it comes with 2 keys-so put it in and good as new-also if theres any part of the broke key stickin out grab and twist it with pliars-this shouls open your trunk too-good luck-hope this helps

If the key was all the way in when it was broken then the tumblers are lined up and you should be able to turn the cylinder with a screwdriver. If the key broke when it was partly out you can have a locksmith remove it with a broken key extractor. You may find a mechanic that has one.
