Trunk and fuel door cable
Hey guys,

Have the two cables here and looking for the handles...

But, i've checked both trunk and fuel lid... I can't figure out how they open with cables...

Can someone show me?!

Cheers

Trunk and fuel door cable
I came across this auction earlier this week:
https://page.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/f206612043
Basically NOS of the handles! Hurray!

And I also found this while searching again for that auction:
https://page.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/v547111250
A complete set. Not new old stock, but including the fuel door opener. Smile

As you can see, you will pull the cable out by pulling the handle upwards, then on the other side of the cable will be attached to this fuel door opener or the trunk release:

It will pull the black pin inwards, where the black pin keeps the fuel door shut by retaining the lock latch. That's also another way to open it if the cable fails: just open it using the lock.
As far as I know all AE86 boot locks have the ability to be opened using the cable.

The trunk latch and cable opener are mostly identical to All corolla's DX here in Portugal, so i got it covered!
