lumina, under steering column
bonne door
Had the car a year before I found the yellow button on my Lumina
Wow! Has everyone who has a bonne have (or had) a lumina too? I have a '93 lumina.
I had a '98 Lumina LTZ......and on my '03 SSEI the gas cap locks and unlocks automatically.

I just use the button on my keys to open my trunk. I love it, I have no complaints, and yes mine is a kid hauler too. Oh and as for the seat/trunk access, that thing is tough to open. If someone wants to go through the trouble of opening it, they can.....They will not get very far before someone spots them.

My '93 had the trunk release on the door. It never worked, and could never figure out why. It all looked wired up right, nothing blown...

Personally, I think on the door is a bad place.

.
um...


The part you can't read because it'* blurry says "Prevents access to trunk, fuel fill door, garage door opener when, SWITCH IS ON, GLOVEBOX IS LOCKED. VALET KEY IS USED"
