I have seen on E-Bay listings for a power trunk latch for 69 Camaros. I don't believe these were available, or were they?

They can come from other cars as the latches interchange. They sell for ridiculous prices with "Camaro" in the header. Why not?!?! -Mark. teSSa May 31st, 02, 08:40 AM by using the power trunk release, does this eliminate the use of the trunk lock and key? ------------------ 68' 350eng/350trans 88' BMW 735i 90' Camaro Spames May 31st, 02, 10:35 AM If you have the trunk release button mounted outside the car. .

My keys were in my Girl Friends pocket book and we closed the lid. OOOPPPS. With a push of a button a major headace was avoided. I paid 150.00 for mine. It was money well spent. ------------------ 502 Bob 69 Z-502 Nothing like a 69 with traction issues. www.mobiletools1.com (http://www.mobiletools1.com) [This message has been edited by mobiletools (edited 05-31-2002).] kurt6325 May 31st, 02, 03:52 PM Your trunk key will work as normal with the power lock installed. Because the power trunk release option was never offered on a 69 camaro, there is not a correct place to locate the power button. I found that the button fits perfectly in an existing hole in the top of the dash glove box. Power for the switch is nearby if you have the glove box light and the whole thing is out of sight. Worked perfectly for me. johnnyr May 31st, 02, 06:10 PM Does anyone have a list of what donor car's will work on First Generation Camaro's? ------------------ 1967 RS/SS 396 Camaro |
