I have a problem, I recently had a steel plate welded over my trunk key hole. (had to prevent a second theft of equiptment) The only way I can open it is by alarm keypad( added solenoid to alarm brain via relay ) is there a way that I can put a push button say in the glove box for the 'just in case' I lose keys, battery in transmitter goes bad, I lock keys in trunk, yada yada yada ect. ------------- Nick Scott

A little story about the AZN's dark background... Me and my friends once stole a car that was locally pretty high profile. It had tons of stuff. Remind you this was like back in 96. The whole trunk was welded shut and it had what ever the top clifford alarm was back then. Me and my friend managed to take it to an abandoned garage in the ghetto; pulled down the door and we started stripping the crap out of it while the sound of heilocopters and cop cars buzzed outside.
But anyways you would just use a normally open button with one side going to ground and the otherside going to your trigger wire.

so it would go between the relay and the solenoid? I dont understand. the alarm dei rattler sends out a negative to a relay I hooked up then to the solenoid to pop. where would a normallyopen button go, if normally open I wont be able to pop from remote. loop ends at the button, right? ------------- Nick Scott

If your RELAY powers the Trunk Solenoid, then you would want the switch to trigger RELAY like your Alarm.
One side of Push Switch goes to Relay side that DEI is hooked to and the other side of switch goes to Ground

I dont know what kind of car it is or if it even applies but if its like most japanese cars that have the key lock up front for the trunk popper then all u have to do is remove the door sill and pull on the on the cable thats running to the trunk. That should give it enough tension to pop the trunk you could disconect the cable at the trunk to prevent this type of opening.

I also removed the lock from my trunk and smoothed the metal. I "shaved" the locks. Anyway, once while on vacation in florida, my lil brother was getting his luggage out of the trunk and ended up locking my keys in the trunk! But at least the car was unlocked. What I ended up having to do was pull up the back seat, and I saw the trunk solenoid wire which was running right alongside my amp power wire. I took a safety pin and poked it thru both wires and voila! I popped the trunk right open. At first I was trying to remove the back seat to gain access to the trunk from there, but when I saw the wires right there sitting right in front of me, a Lightbulb just popped into my head. So I took the easy way out. Cuz trying to squeeze my 6foot, 275lb self into the trunk from the backseat would NOT be an easy task.(unless its in one of them car where the back seat actually folds down).
