Not sure when it listed... no bids thus far. Good find. Starting bid is only $0.99... I bet one of you would love to have it!

Dude- you should have posted it on here. I bet someone would have bought it and saved you the eBay fee's??!?! :confused4:

Yeah I know, I was on a roll listing things and in it went. There are some trunk letters in there too that should have been offered here first too.

Hey Turbo - I bought my truck release from Kimson also. I am about to install, so I'll tell ya when I am done. However, there is an entire thread on this subject somewhere on this site. Several had done this already and LOVE IT!! It seems pretty straight forward from what I read. Hard mount the release, then run a wire to your dash or glove box. Mount the release switch which you'll have to buy and then run a wire to your fuse box to power it. Seems very simple, but like I said, I haven't done mine yet. If Mother Nature is nice this Easter Weekend, I plan to work on it then.

Joern, the trunk release in the auction is incorrect for 71, but will work just as well. The 71 model had a different mechanism.
