I was thinking that a hidden set of terminals, like they use on race cars, tucked under a fender or something like that would replace a manual release in the event of a dead battery.

They would have to be wired into the main battery harness, but if the battery died, you could use a second battery to "jumper" the electrical system and open the doors, thus removing the requirement for the manual release.

I know Summit Racing and Jegs both sell these items. They are listed as "Remote Battery Jumper Terminals" and cost less than $20 bucks.

Just one of the ideas running around my head, as I am planning to get rid of the cables for the trunk and deck lid on my Ghia and use the system I just described.

Cheers,


Doug
