you can get a button fitted onto your dash to open it.... dont know how much it would cost though but i got quoted 200 i think for it all smoothed and sprayed and button fitted on dash

you can get boot poppers on ebay cheap, and that is a solanoid that pulls on part of the boot releasing it. there like £20ish

most people use a solenoid, probablies best way tbh, also they de wiper the car, so the rear wiper switch is perfect for opening the boot :y:

That's the most common way of doing it, and as you're smoothing it unlikely you'll have the rear wiper still on there.

If you can get hold of a Haynes Max Flower manual it shows you how to wire it up in there.
