The shock is located on the passenger side. It has a cable attached on both sides. One goes to the trunk lid hinge (which also includes a lever and wheel that pulls on cable). The other goes to the lower trunk latch. I hooked everything up, but the cable to the latch is completely frozen. I sprayed it with "knock'er loose and will try again tomorrow!
