Not too sure how yours is wired, but there is a vacum pump on the rear deck

You might need to wire to that vacum pump

I just went thru the folding mirrors write up by Joey and he mentioned that he used the wires for the remote trunk switch....
So is this where I add on the switch?

If I'm not mistaken, I believe there is a vacuum relay in your engine compartment (front left if you're looking fron the front of the car) that controls all the vacuum related functions (door, trunk, etc). You can tell which are the vacuum lines cause they are larger in diameter (see Susanto's pic). You might need to run the vacuum line to the front of the car in order to get the trunk release to function properly.
