04 sti boot wont open
Hi all
Looking for some advice. My 04 sti boot will not open with the key or using the boot release. Is there are way to open it it?

There is a lever on the bottom of the latch mechanism, you will need to climb in the boot and should be able to see it from there.

I had to do this once, remove all rear seats because some twit had flicked that annoying little level across.

That little leaver on the mechanism is only suppose to stop boot operation from inside the car you should still be able to open with the key.

As above, try the spare key, might be less worn, failing that, it's a locksmith.
