automatic trunk popper

with all the issues I've been having with parts wearing and not currently being able to get into my trunk got me thinking, has anyone gotten into looking into getting an automatic trunk popper with a button or anything??? just to give it a little bit easier open???

Re: automatic trunk popper

You mean like with a remote setup or something? That'd be even more complicated than the system that is on the car now (which isn't that overly complicated in the first place).

Lol there is no way you're serious. Hahaha but I just think it'd be nice addition, I plan to put a viper alarm system n stuff so to be able to pop the trunk too would be nice

Re: automatic trunk popper

Neon lights warm up the air underneath the car thus an upward flow of air is created making the opening of the trunk easier... fo sho.

But to be realistic... get hydraulics.

Re: automatic trunk popper

Very easy, mine will have it. Though, I will also have the factory cable release, I will be putting my solenoid in the trunk lid since the lock is no longer there. You could remove the cable part and hide the solenoid down there pretty easily though, but I really like the way Subaru did the cable release.

I'll take plenty of pictures when I get around to doing it.

I would have guessed 20Hp at least. Get a ricer universal spoiler and that adds an other 30hp... Hahahahahahahaha. Each decal is 5hp as well. If you get the ricer muffler its at least 50Hp...... Pur muffler..... wait never mind its not Honda so non of that stuff helps, I forgot sorry guys.
