is that the kind of thing i'm after? did you guys fit yourselves or get auto electrician to fit or clever friend? cars going in next week and i assume it would be best to have this done prior to having the lock removed?

cheers

Best popper is . A solenoid from a petrol cap and a boot latch from a beetle . Then the solenoid will need wiring up . That's what I have in mine

Same here

If you can get hold of a Bora CCM you can use the boot popping function of a three button remot too
