Any ideas on how to modify the trunk release from the electric solenoid to mechanical with out too much modification?
Here's my issue - I'm running a fuel cell in my race car but still have to unlock the trunk with the key.....extremely annoying when I have limited time between sessions to fuel up. And if I lose the key....
I was looking to remove the lock and run a pull cable through the existing hole.....cheap and light. It wasn't until I removed the lock did I find out the latch was electric. So I'm looking for a mechanical latch that I can use to attach the pull cord to. Wondering if an older model or another car would have a spring-type latch of some sorts that would work on an SN95.
My second option is to run hood pins through previously drilled holes in the deck lid (from the old spoiler). This would require me to have someone fab up and weld something to hold the pin from the bottom though.
Hope that makes sense on what I'm trying to accomplish........thoughts?
