How to open trunk Infiniti QX80 from the inside?
After examining the various motives why you might want to open the trunk of your Infiniti QX80 from the inside, we will describe how to do it in practice.
You may not be informed of it, but there is an internal handle on your trunk, which is there for safety. This handle is hidden and many of us are not even knowledgeable of its existence. However, it is the handle that will allow you to open the trunk of your Infiniti QX80 from the passenger compartment. To find this “handle” you’ll have to get in the back seat (don’t be reluctant to fold it down for more space), and, at the trunk lock of your Infiniti QX80 (center of the tailgate), you’ll have to remove a plastic cover to see the whole lock appear. Once this has been carried out, you should identify a sort of lever that once activated will allow you to open the tailgate of your Infiniti QX80 from the inside. Be careful though, on many models if this lever remains in the open position you will not be able to lock your trunk when locking your car with the central locking system. So be sure to put it back in position once you close your trunk.
