Default 57 trunk lock pics
Would someone please post pics (exterior and interior) of the trunk lock on a 56-57? Mine was glassed over by a previous owner and I need to redrill the hole for the key cylinder.

Thanks,
Rex

The hole is 1.25 inch diameter and has a notch to locate the escutcheon and lock cylinder in the correct position. The pics may help you. I will post when I get back to my computer.
