i have a special motor made for opening the rear
it cost about 100 € or less, depends where you get it...
You simply plug it to a 12V cable...(from the battery or from any device). Instal the button anywhere you like (mine is in on of the small rectangle beside the defrost button).
Mine is probably not well fixed or ajusted 'cause I'm having trouble opening the boot...but my friends are not having problem...there's also one using these king of motor to open his door (got rid of the handles...)
if you want I can take pics of the motor in the rear (this will give me a chance to ajust it correctly....)...

Hey there,
I've done this and I've had no problems. Look at my pictures and you'll see for yourself.
