It doesn't sound off when you open. It does when you lock it but you can toggle it off so it won't sound either way.

Is it possible/practical to add a push button hatch release in cockpit? Is the exterior touch-panel a simple momentary-contact or does it include some sort of circuit board?

Two things -

1 -it's surprising there isn't an inside hatch release button; and

2 - I never let anyone open or close my trunk/hatch. Way too many dolts that slam the sh1t out of doors/trunks/hatches when closing them.

I absolutely think its a "female" thing to SLAM! The trunk like its a steel door on a secret layer! LMFAO! It drives me absolutely BONKERS when "they" do that!

I have trained mine well.

She can slam anything in her own car... but when she is in mine, feet on the floor, hands in her lap and exit the vehicle cautiously.

Don't scuff up my sills, don't play with the radio.

Don't slam the door and wait for me to unlock it before pulling on the handle.

Works really well. ;-)

^Haha, I tell that to everyone before they ride in my car. Don't scuff anything getting in or out, do not slam the door, and try not to touch everything.

Well there's always the manual release cable. You could probably replace it with a longer cable and route it up to a pull-tab near the driver's seat.

This thread is going all over the place LOL.

I don't like it when people close the passenger door by putting their hands on the window...

It's possible. Supposedly, there's a wire under the passenger's kick panel, and you can tap into it...

I actually got a G37 sedan as a rental car, and that's actually what made me think of this. It was convenient when I used the button on the G.

I don't know why you put that smiley. I was just letting you know, with no attitude or other meaning behind it.

I did re-read your question and there is a beep when you open the hatch or door via the button. When you open it with the keyfob, there is no sound.

However, there is a horn honk when you close the door with the keyfob. This is the sound I was referring to when I answered your first question.

Edit: Sorry for hijacking the thread hdskull!!!

Hmm, this may not be EXACTLY the information that you all were. Looking for, but for wiring an internal trunk release, this will get you started.

that little confusing round button is to unlock the doors. so if you and a friend are walking up to the car and you need to put something in the trunk you can unluck their door and open the trunk at the same time...or even getting something out of the trunk, you can lock the doors instead of walking around to your door or having to reach into your pocket for your key fob
