Auto Parts: trunk relase, chevy malibu, gm factory

Question
Help my trunk won't open, neither the key or release switch will work.  it appears that a cable in the locking mechanism has pulled loose.  What is the part called and where can i get one?  Ohh i have a 98 Chevy Malibu

Answer
I highly suspect this will be a dealer part only.  What you can do is this:  go to a dealer, show the parts guy the problem, have him look up the part and get the part # off him.  Once you get the part number, go to http://www.gmpartsdirect.com and order it.  GMPartsdirect is by far the cheapest place to get GM factory parts.

Hope this helps in your search.
