I'm still wondering if anyone knows whether Toyota makes an electronic trunk release that can be hooked up to an aftermarket alarm system. The standard aftermarket electronic trunk relase for that purpose would not fit on my Gen 3 Camry (lack of space on the trunk lid). Anyone had the same problem? Any solution? Thank you!

I don't know much about gen 3 but even the gen 4 didn't have a factory remote trunk release. And the aftermarket would cost a couple hundred. I am sure there is someone that makes one for the gen3.

Can you please ask if that part will work for a 95? Thanks.

When I had my new Viper alarm put in my installer said I could have a trunk release acutator put in. He said it would be no problem. Check out the Wiz in NYC.

Thanks for the info. I already had one put in. Unfortunately, it is not totally integrated to the existing system. 50% of the time, when I pop the trunk with the car still armed, the volting sensing function of the alarm would be triggered since the light in the trunk comes on. But I don't get why this only happens half the time. Some explanations are the alarm was actually picking the vibrations from the mechanism, or that the light is a very small voltage which may or may not trigger the alarm. Whatever it is, I disabled the voltage sensing function and the alarm is not triggered anymore. Anyone else had experienced this?
