I've got one that I won't use. Picked it up out of a junkyard, and then the deck I got had one anyway.

Richard, I added one to a base 88 coupe. All the wiring was there. Just had to plug in a relay underneath the dash, add a switch on the instrument pod, and snake a wire through the deck lid ribbing. There's a blank terminal in the harness at the right deck hinge. That's power for the release. I clipped a short piece of harness from a junk yard car and soldered it onto the wire I snaked through and inserted it into the blank socket on the decklid harness.

NO. It's MINE and it is PRIVATE. I shall place it in a box, and place that into another box, and then mail that box to myself. And, when it arrives, I shall place the box in the corner and not open it.
Why would I ? I know what's in in it.
seriously, though - give me what I paid for it, plus shipping, and it's yours. Are you in a time crunch ?
