I dont know why, but that hook is not on the lock. I tried to move it, it is very hard to do that because of space... Few guys told me an idea "lets brake rear light and then you will be able to reach main lock with your hand" , well that sounds awful , but how do you think, that kind of action can help me or it is just another try, but just with consequences...
It sounds as if you're trying the trick mentioned here:

The 'hook' that you mention is bronzy coloured in the second picture, and needs to be pushed towards the outer edge of the car. Since you're having to do this from the back seat, whatever you use will need to be pretty sturdy.
