I am putting my Firebird back together and am having trouble with the trunk lock assembly. I got it installed but it won't work. The rod that goes from the back of the key lock to the latch seems to be binding because of the angle of the rod. The diagram I've seem show the rod as being straight. Is that a correct depiction? I have replaced the back panel and reinstalled the latch bracket and all seem to be in the right location. Any thoughts?
