One of the few problems left on the coupe is that when i pull up on the trunk release, it releases the latch, but doesnt actully pop the trunk up...so its pretty pointless unless some one is standing right behind the car and pulls up on the trunk while im holding the lever up. Same thing with when we put the key in the trunk, we have to hold the key turned, and then pull up on the trunk to get it to open. Is this common with coupes? or standard? I have never been near a coupe untill we got sarah's, so im still learning things about them as i go. Any ways, if this isnt suppost to be happening, any idea of how i can get it to pop??

yep.... thats how its supposed to be done, dont give them a way to pull it out...and then if your trunk is locked, they will ever get it... even the amp, theres a way to hide that.... with cars like ours, you make a custom box... sub on passanger side, and then a encased amp on driverside, then attach the 2 buggers...full hatch... and then you take the fiberglass cover and make sure it covers it, dont want someone breaking your windows..... also dont forget alarm..
