DarsteMyst Posted October 5 Share Posted October 5 I am now in Colorado. This morning, my trunk is inoperable. 1986 560SL. The trunk key only rotates about three-quarters of the way to the unlock position. The door key is exclusively designed to open the doors. It is not catastrophic unless I need tools for the remainder of my journey; but, I will be donning the same attire. Do you have any recommendations?

tomatoeincluding Posted October 5 Share Posted October 5 This recalls the occasion when I informed my wife that I could prepare my own luggage for a two-week vacation to New Jersey at a training facility without a rental vehicle. I realized that I neglected to bring underwear. I spent the whole two weeks washing my shorts each night before going to bed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
partexpat Posted October 5 Share Posted October 5 A thread exists here detailing the precise location for drilling a hole to access the latch mechanism, with dimensions and other specifications. Continuing the search. Rowdie participated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

silver6933 Posted October 5 Share Posted October 5 It is evident which individuals on this forum have been married for an extended duration. For around $15, one may get a pack of 3 to 5 Hanes or Fruit of the Loom items at any retail establishment, ranging from Family Dollar to Super Walmart.

DarsteMyst Posted October 5 Author Share Posted October 5 No other issues have arisen since I opened it. However, I will not be storing my CPAP in the trunk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
