hi, you will need an actuator, spdt relay, and a spare output from your alarm or switch in your car to activate it, what car are you intending to do this to.

u can just buy an aftermarket trunk selenoid with button and instructions.  They usually run about $20

We sell them at our store for $19.99

you can go on ebay and get a boot pop kit, or you can use a central door lock actuator, depending on how strong the return is on the rod on the lock in your boot you may need to add a spring to make the actuator return ready to open the boot again for the next time it is operated, i have never done one on a punto before so i wouldnt beable to give you any tips on that vehicle.

are you running it off a spare output from an alarm or do you want to put a button in the car? let me know  and i can tell you possible wiring set ups.
