Re: Trunk Release on 98 GLX

[rehab@ravenet.com (Rick Barton)]

Not certain what you mean...  on my 98 it (the key slot) stays vertical and
can't be left in the unlocked position...  anyway, I had it taken care of
today, they gave me a beat ol automatic jetta GL...  Not a bad car if it
weren't for being used to the GLX.
