I looked at doing a "draw close latch" but the 67-68 filler neck is the issue.
Not alot of room in that area.

Steve,
Thank you for the nice review.

Steve I second your remarks a quality product. We put one in our 63 Galaxy as well. Nice work Shannon! :thumbsup:

So will this set-up work with just about any trunk latch ?

Like a 70 Barracuda ??

You could always do one for a 69 :)

Nice product!

Ned we just fabricated a lower mount for the latch, and the upper tab just need two holes and nut plates. A couple of hours taking your time and your done.

Thanks Frank.
I looked at and tried several different mechanisms, modified factory latches and added solenoids. This kit took a little over a year to develop. In fact, I worked on this before I even started Modo Innovations.

Thanks again to all for the nice comments.

I just picked up the May issue of "Camaro Performers" and read a nice piece titled "Easy Access". It is about Steve Rupp's install of our latch in "Penny".:woot:

Thanks for the nice article Steve, you are the man.:thumbsup: :thumbsup:

The install was so simple that it was hard to stretch it to 3 pages.. lol..

great product and glad you liked the story. I like doing stories on inexpensive upgrades you can do in a day or afternoon. I think readers do as well.

You will see my name in just about every Camaro Performers from now on.

I'm diversifying.. lol

Thanks for the review Steve. Sounds like a great product.

I've had pretty good luck with this one.
