"PORSCHE" rear reflector

How do you open the rear trunk when you install the "PORSCHE" rear reflector on? Any web pages on that install?

there is a electric solonoid that is remotely operated with a button usually on the fuse box.

Because some people have had difficulty with the electric trunk solenoids, there is a manual release kit available on the 914Club.com board. I've got one but haven't installed my reflector and release yet.

Yes, Mark Bland, (Engman) makes a very nice one and sells it on the 914Club page under resources. Great products from this guy, you may want to look at the other stuff he offers as well.

Electric solenoid, or pull cable release (like the engine lid release), or cut a hole in the reflector and let the button poke out. Or just remove the latch and let gravity hold it down. (Not recommended!)
