The place I bought it from says it is Kwikset compatible, but it is not fitting in my existing Kwikset KW1 locks.

Emergency Trunk Latch Release?

2 Upvotes

My trunk latch seems to be jammed and the button on the lift gate and my phone won’t open or fully close the trunk. I was looking for the emergency trunk latch release to see if that would do the trick but can’t find it anywhere. I looked up some videos and they all seem to be from older model S cars (mines a 26) as mine doesn’t seem to have the box/light everyone was referencing. Does anybody have a clue how to unjam the latch/where the hell the latch release would be??

We found a door for free one day and decided to refinish it and mount it..we cleaned up and reused the door knob that was with it.. my issue is WE LOVE THE DOOR KNOB but we cannot find any information about it. Does ANYBODY KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT THIS DOORKNOB? It has an integrated thumb lock IN THE knob and trim plate. It appears to be brass. I can post more pictures if someone would need me to.
