Default Trunk Realse Button Help!!

Ok how’s everyone today? I have noticed a lot of bad, not to serious post lately.
So I will come out and say this, my question is very vague J
I have a 90 lx, and in the glove box, I have no trunk release. . . I was wondering if anyone knew the colours of the wires that lead to the glove box that are for the trunk release.
I don’t even know If that’s where it used to be, you guys told me that’s where it was!!
So if you could help me out that would be great. I know a lot of you people have re routed your button to the center consol. So any help would be great!!!

you need to pop the trunk and look for a release solonoid..if it has one then your car has the option..if there isn't one then the search stops there

My '91 has one and its in the left side of the glove box.

Perhaps it was optional equipment?
