need help finding manual locking mechanism for 2000 slk convertable
Hi, I need some help please. I removed the actuators and am getting them repaired because I have a hydraulic fluid leak and the hardtop stopped working. The trunk wont lock into place now. I read some where that theres a manual lock but I can't find it. Any and alll help is greatly appreciated. Thanks

Let me give more detail... the trunk lock does work however the front of the trunk isnt locking into place (where the trunk would open when the hard top would open)

There is a manual lock for the top at the windshield, and a manual release in the trunk. I do not believe there is a manual lock for the front of the trunk.
