Product Review - remote trunk release

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!

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".

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

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.
