A short while ago I posted that my trunk would not lock (thanks for the replies) The problem was a small fragment of plastic from the actuator had broken off and had jammed the lock. I took the lock off and shook the plastic piece free and now the lock works well. I am however now looking for an actuator/solenoid for remote opening, any ideas where to get one please let me know.

Actuator lists for $62.00 from dealer. You will have to call for availability.

I am pretty sure I have one that I took off of a '97 recently? Let me know if you can't locate one and I'll look and see for certain, and maybe we can do some business?

There are a few on ebay. This one is $25 shipped. Not bad IMO, I actually got one out of Summit PickNPull recently for $6. The actuator is the same one in the 93-96 caprice and probably other GM of the era.
