   hi everyone
i've recently had a problem with my boot lock button stayin in so on dismantling the lock i noticed the mounting bolts had almost corroded completely threw. the car is a 1994 M reg so not really very old. there is no damage any where on the boot so i thought i'd see whether this is a common problem on the coupe
cheers

phil

	mine's a 95 on an N, and my lock is clean (doesn't get used so is a little stiff to turn the key). I don't think it's a problem that's common as I haven't heard of any more that have suffered the same problem
