Default Another stupid thread question!!!Sorry but I gotta...

Is there a Trunk button anywhere besides on the keyless entry remote??????? My 03' GT had one in the glove box...

Sorry just chalk this question up as another dumba** with internet access, a little free time at workand a new body style stang....This is a real question tho...

Here's the link to install your own.

One thing though. I did NOT use the same button as in the above instructions. It sticks out too far.
At Radio Shack, they have a drawer with 4 or 5 different "momentary switches". I got a round lower
profile button...it also had a black frame w/red button.

I think it's an antitheft thing.

Actually there is a trunk release inside the car.
It's located inside the trunk and it glows in the dark.
This kept the cost down on your new Stang []
The search function still works well

They took it out for 08? That makes no sense.

Only on the Verts. On the Coupes,
one only has to crawl thru the drop
down rear seats.
Remember this when you accidentally
lock your keys in your trunk. []

They eliminated it onall 05 and up S197s all together
and its on the key fob now. Read Your Owners Manual.
