Default 2005 Trunk button

Do the 2005s have a trunk release button in the car somewhere? I did a search but came up with nothing... I've looked through the owner's manual and came up with nothing...

You do realize that you can use the key to open the trunk, right?

By the way, I noticed that if I try to pop the trunk when I have stopped with the remote, like at curbside at the airport, I have to put it in Park for the remote to work!

There is no trunk release inside the car, there are only 3 ways to open the trunk, either with the blue button on the key fob, or by using the key, or by pulling down the back seats and pulling the emergency trunk release from inside the trunk. If you lose or break your remote, youll either have to get another from a dealership, or use your key.

You could always install a button like nonstopred posted. I plan on doing that, since Im taking the lock off the trunk and removing the badge..
