rear latch

Alright, my rear latch on my 83 z28 hasn't been working lately. So today when I got a chance I pulled it and saw the reason it wasn't working. Looks like some cable simply broke. Now for the life of me I just can't seem to find one at any part store. I've searched under hatch latch, trunk latch, trunk lid latch. Somebody care to point me in the right direction?

Yes, look to the right of your screen for the ad for TDS or top down solutions for all your hatch parts.

It is in fact from a 89-91 car, but would work for a 86-87 by swapping the connector on the blue wire. Regardless, it will not fit Frontier07's 83 F-body wihtout major modification to his car. He'd need to cut the body mount out or his car and swap in the body mount from a 86-91 car.

Im looking to add a trunk release to my '86 coupe. do you have any trunk release solenoids for sale? I have switches and relays, but may be interested in original type replacements. If you could shoot me a message at your convenience I would appreciate it
