    power trunk release

    Anybody installed a power trunk release? Seems a other Honda model assy may be adapted. Thoughts.

    Hayabusa engine transplant, power trunk release... Is there anything you won't try?


    Past Hondas:
    1960 125cc Honda Benly CB92R
    1964 305cc Super Hawk CB77, the only vehicle I have ever bought new in my life!
    Honda CB160, roadraced as 175cc 1967-1970.
    Honda Lawnmower, bought used in 2003, caught fire and melted in 2005.

    Can't be too difficult, springs, a little wiring + the sending unit off of a different car. Problem is often those go through the key fob yea? That might require some central security system depending where you get the donor parts from. If you're engine swapped, this'll be a walk in the park.

    Not a huge amount of space to play with but it can be done. Here is my effort.

    I'm shopping for a small solenoid activated from inside the car. And include a spring.
