GnatGoSplat Posted May 19, 2003 Report Share Posted May 19, 2003 If your doors are locked too and you don't have a spare key, then NO, there's no other non-destructive way to get into the trunk. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hazmatic Posted May 19, 2003 Author Report Share Posted May 19, 2003 my doors r unlocked only muh trunk is closed n locked Edit: i have no SPARE keys Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GnatGoSplat Posted May 19, 2003 Report Share Posted May 19, 2003 I thought all Buick Regals have a trunk release button inside? If you don't have one, you can pull your rear seat out and get in the trunk that way. I think it's only 2 bolts to get the bottom cushion out, and then 2 nuts down by the seatbelts to get the upper cushion out. It's hooked at the top so once you get those 2 nuts off, pull the bottom out to clear the studs and then lift up and the rear cushion should come off. That should leave you with at least enough room to get your arm in the trunk and fish the keys out. Then after that, go get a spare set made.

Slade901 Posted May 19, 2003 Report Share Posted May 19, 2003 I'm not sure about Buick but on my car 1990 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme, it has a quick release pull-handle on the upper both sides of the rear seat back support and it will fold down the back support in the rear seats. If you don't have those quick release pull-handle then try following what GnatGoSplat had suggested. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GnatGoSplat Posted May 19, 2003 Report Share Posted May 19, 2003 Yeah, you'll see what I'm talking about better once you get the lower cushion out. If your arm isn't long enough, try using a stick or coat hanger! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My stepbro's 90 4dr doesn't have it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AWeb80 Posted May 19, 2003 Report Share Posted May 19, 2003 try using a long magnet on a handle if your arm isn't long enough. I know it won't help you, but my dad has an extendable magnet, I think it is a MAC Tool brand. Probably only 5-6 bucks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PJB Posted May 20, 2003 Report Share Posted May 20, 2003 Go to a dealer with the vin # and get another key cut. I had a guy that worked at a dealer cut me a key and I didnt even know him (on another forum with him). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ismellrealbad Posted May 20, 2003 Report Share Posted May 20, 2003 just pull the back seat. it takes 3 seconds. 2 13mm bolts on the bottom, lift out. 4 10mm bolts on the bottom of the top coushin. lift UPWARDS on it then when its off those hooks pull it out. you can cannonball yourself into the trunk if you wanted to with the space youll have after that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
91GranSport Posted May 20, 2003 Report Share Posted May 20, 2003 They do, at least all the Buick Regals I've driven, which would be an '89 Regal Custom, my current '91 Regal GS, a '92 Regal Limited and a '94 Limited. The trunk release button is in the glovebox, it's a little yellow button on the '88-'93 models. I thought all Buick Regals have a trunk release button inside? If you don't have one, you can pull your rear seat out and get in the trunk that way.

Slade901 Posted May 20, 2003 Report Share Posted May 20, 2003 Talking about trunk release button. On my car, the trunk release button is located underneath the Instrument Panel Carrier on the driver side. It is that panel underneath where you have to remove it if you are working on the brake switch, cruise control switch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

91GranSport Posted May 21, 2003 Report Share Posted May 21, 2003 I think that's only on '93+ Regals, but I can be wrong. Talking about trunk release button.

89BuickRegalGS Posted May 21, 2003 Report Share Posted May 21, 2003 thats what i thought but keepin the hole seat out n the cloth thats behind the seat seperatin the trunk n front cab n ill put more subs n amps werre the seats werre I have (its for sale!) an 89 Regal GS with teh bucket seats in teh back. I cut a hole in the "wall" between teh seats and put a speaker grill over it with a light black cloth behind teh grill. It looked really trick, like i had a speaker mounted between the seat, and it let teh bass through. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hazmatic Posted May 22, 2003 Author Report Share Posted May 22, 2003 i dont got the bucket seats in the back i got a bench ill trade u seats or how much do u want just for the seats n maybe even the ground effects Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
89BuickRegalGS Posted May 22, 2003 Report Share Posted May 22, 2003 all 4 seats in the car are bad ass, 4 buckets,, plus I gots teh sport digital dash with the tach, fuel gage, oil, and temp gages. The ground effects are awesome.... I know your not near me, but you can take the whole car for a descent price, or you can tell me about the parts you want, i can find out a reasonable price to sell you tehm at, but before i can let teh car go, i would have to find a wrecking yard to take the rest of teh car away first.... so holla, keep in touch if your intersted in anything.
