ke35/30 keyless rear trunk , adding cable modification

[saif317]

hello guys , I'm new here.i own corolla ke35 and planning to install duck tail which will cover the section of the trunk lid lock key.

 I'm trying to find any ideas on how to remove and replace it with cable like the front bonnet cable. if anyone have done this modification please share . thank you in advance.

Shouldn’t be too hard. Lots of later corolla’s had cable release. 

I would visit a wreckers and take something complete from the earliest toyota I could find with it. For example, ae86 coupes have them, and I’m sure our AE82 seca had one. Your hardest task may be getting the cable length right.

All the AE71s have them, and the KE70 XX model has them too.  You'll also need the later boot latch I expect, it has an extra couple of bits of bent metal to make it work.  Comes with the fuel cap release as a unit.
