How do I manually open the fuel/ gas door?

The pump for the central locking system has died but before the new one arrives I need to get more fuel in the car (W220 S320 petrol).

I've had a look under the right hand side boot carpet and can't find anything to release the lid. Can someone give me some clues as to where it is as next week off on a 600 mile round trip! Many thanks for any help you can give.

Nothing fancy inside at all.

This is what its like on a W202, could an S320 be similar?

Many thanks for all the responses.

I've got the door open and so, should the new PSE pump not arrive in time, I can at least get enough fuel in the car to get home!

Cheers. Tim
