Pretty soon the lock & wiper will be going on my Corsa. Obviously I'll still need access to the boot from time to time.
The solenoid. Not got one yet but I understand that Im best using a Mk 3 Fiesta boot popper? What should I wire it to? Is there anything I can use which doesn't mean I have to start running wires through the car?
I was thinking if I wire it up the the power for the rear wiper then all I have to do to pop the boot is push the wiper stalk forwards?
Any help/info/suggestions welcome on this

yeh but if you knock the stalk as your driving along youll be annoyed, id probably use the wiring from it but relocate the switch.
i have a solenoid, thats never been used which i got for my smooth boot but never fitted it.

How much did you pay?
What are these things worth?

So just trace the wiring back & branch it off? May as well run a new wire?

Very easy to fit, however I had wired a couple of neons into my boot ages ago , from the battery and used them for the solenoid.
But yeh I think its most common to do off the wiper motor.
Buy a kit off ebay probably about £10
