Open Trunk or Seat with DEAD Battery

[bfmtrader]

I have not had this happen yet, but someone probability has, how do you open the trunk, or seat, if the battery is completely dead?

You don't need the battery with an RS. The releases are mechanical not electrical.

I don't know about the RT..

But if you happen to lock your key in the frunk. Many have:lecturef_smilie: you can remove the left silver (mine) panel and jerk the cable to open the frunk. RT is a little different but same concept.

You can make your own emergency release:

On the RT, they both open from the key with the power off. You press the key IN and turn it one way to open the frunk and the other for releasing the seat. I use it all the time. I rarely use the electrical frunk release.

Hope that helps.

That how I do mine as well. Since I have the Corbin seat and removed the pin I don't have to worry about the seat.
