you have to buy a boot soleniod kit that allows you to rig up a button on your dash that will 'pop' the boot like many modern cars. Supernovas do a kit here: www.supernovas.uk.com

u could make ur own kit. using a boot release motor from another car or a central locking motor that springs back when the 12v taken away. some automotive wire (5 - 6m), an inline fuse, some chocolate block n a wire coat hanger. u can pick up push switches anywhere or if youve got rid of a rear wiper the use the rear wash switch. wire it up to an ignition live to make it more secure.
