    Want to install remote trunk release for 2017 SR5. Anyone done this? Searching online not finding much.

    Thanks

    Google search "the ultimate camping mod 4 runner". I have one, works great and also rolls down the rear window from the back hatch. Jesse is a good guy and offers great customer service.

    I mounted mine to the drivers side Rago MSP. Had Jesse build mine with longer wires to enable this. I didn't want to drill holes in my new ride. He now makes one with a box that can be mounted with velcro.

    Does the SR5 not have the buttons on the key? Pushing the open button twice unlocks all the doors including the rear hatch.

    You can't open it from the inside with out the mod. Just the weight of the hatch will lock it.

    Hey folks sorry to jump on this thread and sorry to the originator. I'm trying to figure out how to create a new thread I have done it before and thought there was a "thread starter" button or a pic of a pencil or something? Am I blind or maybe hid it by accident or something? :annoyed:

    Pick a forum you want to post in, for instance, "General 4Runner Talk"....then look towards the upper right, there is a "Post New Thread" button in dark blue.
