Re: Noise from the rear!
did a quick search using the search button at the top of the page, type coupe trunk lid wont open....came up with this, looks like someone is going to have to climb in through the cabin and remove the trim panel from the rear hatch to activate the lock... when you get it open you have to do the repair to the pipe before closing the hatch or it will jam again.....best of luck...chris

Re: '04 Coupe Liftgate lock failure
Ok this is how its done my padawans-
remove rear plastic lower panel there will be 1 screw that needs to be removed, that is located where the rear hatch handle is-
slowley pull off the panel , it has 6 clips to hold in place - but comes off nice-
There is a small open area on the Left hand side of the latch (Uper Left)
press down with a flat head screw driver-
you will feel the trunk release and thats it-
However i am still unable to get the device to completly unlock, so when i shut my trunk again it locks, but i was able to get it to open
If your slim you should fit fine, If your a Big Guy you might sweet a little.
