today I'll be showing you how I put a
trunk release button inside the cabin of
this 2011 chevy cruze as many of you are
aware and probably the reason you're
watching this video the chevy cruze does
not come with a trunk release button
inside of the cabin and that's where
I'll be showing you today we'll start by
here on the passenger side come down
here
remove this side panel it's just a
couple of clips
pretty easy if you see something
starting to bend just reposition your
hand once you get that out come over
here to your computer module thing and
it's the second-to-last clip this is
called the pink clip even underneath it
here so this pink second-to-last real
easy to find on this clip you're going
to find the yellow and blue wire this
right here it's real easy to do even if
you've got a little bit of
colorblindness it's the only yellow wire
in there also the yellow and blue light
is the on the right side of it third one
up now after you find this wire put a
little slit in the wire and ground it
and if the trunk opens then you know
100% that's the wire that's what I did
after you know this is the wire I
snipped the wire and I brought another
wire my own this blue wire and I just
connected all three wires together now
I'll be showing you where this goes next
alright we're on the driver side now
they're in that wire across underneath
your knee kick panel and into this
button I installed I'm not going to get
a whole process how I installed it but
you have a couple options you need to
put it there put it down lower or I was
even thinking of putting it right here
this would be pretty easy nice flat
surface light room on the back I didn't
take this part off but it's the same
process on the other side how to get
this off just a couple clips
if you are interested taking make it a
little nicer putting it here again clips
first you got some screws you can see
those that's a seven millimeter I
believe a couple screws everything else
is Clips
you're going to have to do those you
have to take this off here this is all
clips and there's a screw that's
connecting this take that screw off this
whole thing comes off then you can screw
and put your button there now for
grounding I took off the side panel here
and there's a factory ground right there
I just tied into that with a wire you
can see my other blue wire right here
came up put it in that clip now when you
push this button you can hear it opens
the trunk problem solved you want to
make sure you buy a momentarily switch
you don't want to know an off switch or
the other type momentarily I got this at
autozone this which doesn't really isn't
high amp or anything at all so that
doesn't any things going to work this is
about ten bucks
