How do you conventionally open the boot on the Sagaris? Looking at making a modification to the T350 that will lead to me losing the rear badge in its current location. Thanks

Ah, thanks. Mid point of the number plate lights (and in the same plane as them), I'm guessing?

Thanks everyone. I think I was expecting the answer to be "push the Sagaris badge" although that feels like it would be a little low to be comfortable. Under the number plate is still quite low and must be prone to giving you dirty hands but it's a far easier solution to engineer so that's probably what I'm going with. Either way, I'm going to wire a RF momentary switch in parallel to give that option.

Oh, and I do love that even this question doesn't have a straight forward answer. God bless TVR biggrin

I'd be interested to know what you're using for this as I have a project which requires a RF momentary switch (not car related).
Maplin do a very nice 2 channel remote for about £30.
I picked up this from the usual 'Bay of dreams. 2 channel, NC and NO connections. Here's hoping it does the job.

Could always fit an automatic boot opener with a button and remote.

Plenty of AF systems around to do that.
Did look at this Alex. I could only find systems that added springs to the gas struts and given they're visible through the glass, it would give a somewhat cheap pogo stick look to it. Unless you've seen anything better? I've got automatic opening and closing on my f*rd in nice self contained struts but not sure they're available anywhere.
