Hey guys, long time no post...

I'm starting to work on my 95 Cobra convertible again. I came across a 94/95Cobra trunk lid on eBay and bought it to replace my original one that is damaged: release solenoid ripped off the trunk lid.

I'm in the process of swapping what I need from my original trunk. I have two questions:

1. is there any part in the trunk lid and associated wiring that is specific to the car's unique keyless entry? The 1995 service manual and the electical troubleshooting manual are vague.

2. Other than the lock cylinder, is there any other part that I need to swap out? Both trunk lids have identical looking wiring.

Here's a picture of the release solenoid of the new trunk. What's the rectangular part to the right of it that has two wires running to it?


Thanks!

Wish I knew you were looking for a lid; I have an extra one just lying around here. But anyway, you're looking for answers...

1. Nothing for keyless entry on the trunk lid.

2. All wiring on the trunk should be identical between Cobras. I would personally swap the wiring just because you know that your wiring is good and there is no corrosion or damaged wiring. But that's just me.
