Thanks.
I actually posted the similar diagram(few posts above).
That highlighted cable is the “manual keyed” release that goes into the rear seat(driver’ side) The convertibles have it.
The slot hole for the emergency pull tab is actually on the trunk liner.
Its also not anywhere near the...
Mine pops open easily when I’m wiping/cleaning the car.
(Just running a microfiber cloth across it, pops it open)
Part of the reason I got a locking gas cap for it…

I recently installed a CDC bar.
Basically watched this video on YT prior to getting it delivered.
The only difference with mine (non-light)is, I skipped the wiring part.
(plus the 2021 has 2 transponders that had to be relocated, it was pita)
Last time I checked…
Both CJpony and American...
Since the pandemic…Most dealer ordered parts are on “National backorder” (Entire automotive parts/supplies including marine outboards are on backorder since last year) They have lots of cargo ships that are still stranded somewhere. (It was on the news a few days ago)
Anyway, congrats on the...
Update:
I took the cover off again and I found an unused cable slot on the right side of the trunk latch. ( see pic)
And to put some of you at ease, I got a better close-up pic of that piece of plastic in question…lol.
So, no...its not in there somewhere, unfortunately…

Thanks,
The pic that I posted previously has the correct diagram for a convertible.
The cable on the left goes to the convertble’s manual keyed trunk release in the rear seat behind drivers. from the diagram, it supposed to have a cable attached to it for the emergency relase tab. (Mine does...
I was agreeing with Brian that it was prob an assembly error.
Imo, its prob Covid related supply/ materials issue. Lots of parts were backordered.
In any case, I would ask the dealer to take a look at it next week.
Thanks for the replies.
In my original post I actually, was just curious to know if certain models or package did not have it or if they stopped putting it in 2021.
It was more like a psa. (To me its minor issue and its fixable)
Thanks for all the input so far.
But as you can see, theres nothing attached there.
(see this closeup pic, is a small plastic. Its not the T handle)
A couple years ago, we had a rental ecoboost 2019 and I know exactly where its supposed to be. (its just not there, unfortunately)
I wish it was...
The bottom one is easy, just find 2 tabs underneath (in front) press then lift up. I did this when I installed my CDC light bar. (there’s a YT install video and it shows how easily the bottom rear seat is removed)
I had the cover removed when I was installing the Anderson decklid.
I looked everywhere near the lock/ latch. Even looked inside the crevices in the trunk lid...nada.
So after installing my new CF decklid panel, I just noticed the emergency trunk pull tab is absent.
It’s not on the same spot and I looked around the trunk.
(see pic)
Did Ford stopped adding them on the 21?
Everything else works to open it (dash button, remote and trunk button)Just seems odd...
