Re: 86 4kcsq trunk lock

[Huw Powell <human@nh.ultranet.com>]

Happened to me once on an old 5k, the power lock mech screwed up and
prevented opening.

Pulled a speaker, and used lots of extensions and a 10 mm socket to
remove the latch mech. from the trunk lid!  Don't know if it will work
in a 4k.  Someone needs to look at one that is open to tell you that...
