Anyone ever relocate the trunk button or added a small switch somewhere?

Wow nice. Did you splice the trunk release wires under the dash or you ran the cable all the way back? Please share the wires if you did it from under the dash.

Some really nice interiors!! I never really gave it a thought to switch out interior parts because I was really trying to keep it close to original on, but those carbon fiber pieces have me reconsidering my life choices.. I need to visit the interior board and see what others are doing because I just recently got my car and still haven't learned about a lot of the options for mods.

Still interested in the "mod" to allow the key fob to open the trunk when in the ignition (ignition on?).

I did that to my car, and you can also unlock the passenger door with the key in the ignition. I did the mod as I didn't like reaching over to unlock the passenger door for my wife when the car was running, it is quite a stretch, lol.

It is relatively simple to do, if I recall it is just snipping one or two wires on the keyless entry module. There used to be a DIY on this but I no longer see it, I swear it came from Modifry but I don't see it anymore.

If you find it, please post it. I really want to do this mod as my center console is always locked, so I have to shut the car off to pop the trunk, which is dumb.

Also sent PM to EuroBoutique, nice CF kit.
