Okay someone help me with this. There is a guy that often has electric trunk releases for 69 and 70 Mustangs on Ebay. He says that the release is from a newer Ford and that it will bolt in without a problem. He sells it with the wiring and release button. Of course, he doesn't want to tell anyone which Fords have this release. He sells these things all the time for $40 or so. I have looked at several early 70's Fords and can't find one. Does anyone know which Fords have these trunk releases?

i have one in my grande, i got it out of a lincoln continetial, or other big merc and fords.., 77--80 ish car. it was just a little snug, but it went right in, lined right up and works perfect!

i can even tell you how to wire it after you get it.

basically any lte 60's early 80's ford with an electric trunk release uses the same one. fords, lincolns and mercurys all us the same part, only difference between different years is the wiring connector. and those can be changed to use whatever you want, it only has 2 wires on it.
