'99 Regal trunk release

[mrp1937]

I just got this Regal (super clean) from my Uncle and I'm going to give it to my daughter and I can't believe theres not a button to relase trunk lid in glove box (how cheap) and I was wondering if I could wire in a button to release the deck lid? The trunk can only be opened from fob or by key.

Why cannt she just press the key fob button? Seems like some effort would be required to find the correct wire at the release actuator, run a wire from somewhere in the front to the actuator and hope applying power that way doesn't feed back into the BCM causing damage.

Did you happen to solve this issue of the trunk release?

keyfob reply: what if the key fob isnt working? should always be a way into the trunk without relying on just a key.
