Performed the trunk removal weight reduction mod so I didn't have to spend time worrying about how to open the thing. Hard enough getting a new license plate in, can't imagine opening the trunk.

O...M......G

I'm starting to think that the trunk monkeys have taken over, and it's the humans that are now in the trunk...that is, if they can even figure out how to open it in this case.

I almost always use the fob, and then open and close whichever door I'm closest too. I don't want to scratch anything with my acrylics, so I just play it safe and make up pop up that little extra.
