Model X: If the power drops out, you can open the rear doors using a mechanical release found behind the speaker grille, which you need to remove from the vehicle's door, the manual adds.

Fair that you absolutely should research, but having to disassemble my door to get to the manual release isn't something I'd think to look up. It'd just be luck if I happened to come across that in research.
