I installed a DEI solenoid on mine, and I think most solenoids work the same. The release cable should wrap around the rocker in the lock mechanism. The part that pulls back when you pull the manual release inside is the rocker. As for the wiring, ground the solenoid right to trunk lid, and then run the trigger wire to the trigger output line of the security system main box. Whether its aftermarket or factory you have to look for the optional trigger output.
