Pop the lock cylinder out, weld a piece of 20 gauge steel (best option there) into the lock hole so its flush with the outside, sand the extra stuff off then paint the trunk lid.
ne one happen to have a part number for that trunk deck

thats what i did and got mine for 20 bucks
i wouldnt recommend welding on the trunk lid, the metal is very thin and u might warp the metal, i fusioned a piece of steel behind the hole and then fiberglassed it, came out great and it shouldnt crack if done right
if you know how to weld you wont warp the metal. my whole lid was shaved w/ metal fillers and it looks great. if shouldnt fiberglass over holes. over time and due to weather changing it will eventually crack out
