Thanks again!
I'll get into the trunk again tonight and see if I can release that post.
I'll let you know...

Unfortunately, no tool kit, manuals, or anything....

The trunk lock will lock and unlock all of the locks if you use the key in the trunk lock. It does not release with the dash button or the remote button.
Just pushing in on the trunk lock will not open it...
It's like it needs the key in there to actually push the right pieces into place.
I'm going to take it apart tonight and see what makes it (not) tick, and I'll let you know....
Thanks again....
