Hi all,

So - not sure why it did this the other day, but I went to lock the trunk and the button got stuck pushed in and horizontal - locked. I was able to get the key out - but it was stuck.

I've seen the 'go through the targa cap' procedure - **but my top is in the trunk.**

I thought if I drilled the lock out that might help - so i did. The button popped back out - but - it's still locked.

I'm a little worried here - ideas? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)

Thanks!!

Mike
