Friends,
I just got my 914 and cannot get the trunk open because it was rear ended. It does not seem that the wreck was severe enough to make the trunk stick, but I still cannot open it. I have stuck the key in and can turn to the left and back to center, but nothing else.

What can I do? Is there another way to get it open? Once I get it open, I will begin to bang ou the dents.

Thanks (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif)

I tried SirAndy's trick with the coat hanger and it did not work. Not sure what I was suppossed to be hooking.

inside the part you unbolted, there's a little springloaded *hook* ...
you use the coathanger to catch it and move it. that will pop the hood open. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

glad you got in!
