Internal trunk upper tailgate opening button

Took while and ordering a new panel as I had cut the hole in the wrong place, but success!

I wasn't thinking for me personally, just for info for the thread. Good find but that's not the same button kim0785b used.

Any trunk button would work, as long as it's two wires, this is the one I've used taken off a Hyundai Elantra.

Good tip is to close or open using the far end of the trunk window frame, it holds like a handle.

Really important to cut the hole for the button as close as you can to the edge of the panel (close to the window) as there is a metal plate which the button hits if you don't get it far on the edge of the trim! (learnt the hard way and ended up buying another trunk panel!
