Default 2002, S40, trunk release assembly

The trunk release button on my volvo stopped working. The emergency release latch still works so I was able to open the trunk. We took the inside cover off the trunk and found that part of of the plastic mechanism that opens the trunk when you press the button is broken.

Any ideas or will I have to replace the whole assembly?

I have the same problem with mine. It looks like there's a piece missing from the mechanism. The solenoid from the fob works, but it doesn't hit the actuator that goes out to the latch, similarly, the button never makes contact. It probably wouldn't be too hard to fabricate something that works, but I would need to see a picture of what it looks like.

Anybody have a picture of the inside trunk latch, right behind the key.

Thanks,

TF
