Default Last Electrical Bug

I have fixed the charging system problems I had, then today, when the weather was nice got my horn to finally work, nice to hear the train horn again, now time for the trunk release, click the key fob for the trunk release and I can hear the relay click, so for now I'm gonna assume the relay is ok, where can I get my hands on a release solenoid if I need one, seems to be a hard part to research. Also, no noises from the trunk as well, which makes me believe even more it doesn't work, also, have an interior trunk release and nothing from that, it gets power through it, but nothing from the trunk.

Ok, so its the release solenoid, with my volt meter hooked up to the pink/orange wire to ground, while pushing the release button to open power from the relay I would get voltage, but the release would not open, so where can I get one at other than oem.

No the key fob works ok, both of them, its the latch mechanism in the trunk, need a new one, but seeing if anyone has one or knows to get one cheaper than oem.
