Retro-fitted a mid-90's latch with built in solenoid, extended the cable that was the key lock to a **** at the dash to have a mechanical backup in the event of solenoid failure.

Retro-fitted a mid-90's mustang latch with built-in solenoid. Used catch out of a small sedan... A little junk yard hunt... Extended the cable originally for the key to the dash with a universal pull cable from advanced auto parts for a mechanical backup incase of solenoid failure.
