RE: IML: Electric Trunk Release

["Edward Tiede" <e_tiede@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Haley

    I to have the vacumn trunk release in my 67 conv. and 68 Le Baron parts 
car. Saw a 66 in a salvage yard and it was electric.  Wanted to put a remote 
keyless entry system in but didn't know how to hook it up to the vacumn 
release.
