Updating Rear Hatch Release...
 

Dear all,

I have a '82 924 Turbo and I recently bought parts for the electric hatch release. However, for the life of me, I can't figure how to integrate it into my car.

I've looked at the parts and I understand how it works, but the way the parts go, I don't think I can use my key should I want to open it from outside. The manual system has the lock as an integral part of it whereas the electric parts don't have a lock.

Has anyone got pics or any tips I can try?

Many thanks.

Sprint.

You need to weld the mounting bracket to the rear passenger side for the motor.

Only the center key unit is different. Has a different/additional lever assembly on the back so the cable from the motor can operate it.

This is from Pelicans collection of parts pictures.

However I would suggest getting all of the pieces including the catches as these have a better design than the older single blade units.
