Interior trunk release for entrapment protection

I want to see someone fit in my trunk. Any volunteers? If you can fit, I will buy you lunch.

Fine Print.
1. You may NOT volunteer your small children/pets/midget cousins/ethiopian brother.
2. You are responsible for any damage to my car caused by attempt.
3. You may not remove any limbs to increase your chances.

FIT A BODY????

I'd be happy if I could fit my golf clubs.

Jason

Oh well I guess I won't be buying a TT now.

How big is your trunk? I might be able to fit in it.

I'll have to practice on mine a little first, I'm sure limb arrangement has to be pre-determined. Next time I'm in town, I think Jordan is going to be buying me lunch.
