i purchased and installed a boot solenoid kit but unfortunatelly when i press my button to open the boot, someones gotta be behind to lift it up as i press the button or it just locks again. apparently i need some sorta pin/lifter to just lift the boot a little, where can i get one?

Cars with boot poppers have springs to keep the boots hook out of the lock. Just stick a spring on somewhere, pop rivet it usings some sheet steel or something...

i've got some calibra ones.
they are about an inch and a half longer than the corsa ones, and a bit fatter.

i'm sure they will go on as they have the same connections.
i'll try it out at some point and get back to you.
