Yes mate, if you turn the lock round to a certain position it wont open with a 2 button key (iirc) same as the glove box, you can lock it with the 3 button but the 2 button one wont unlock it or something like that? stops people going in your boot if its in for a service etc :thumbup:

I used a claw hammer (the claw bit) to remove the plastic retainers of the carpet.

18-01-2018, 12:15 PM #8My cable slipped on the inside of the boot, causing the release to stop working (interior handle went floppy). It is worth removing the carpet cover and taking a look, its black and on the right had side as your looking at the back of the car. Solved with 2 tie wraps.
