Is there a mod to add a door lock switch to the inside of the rear hatch?

Question Is there a mod to add a door lock switch to the inside of the rear hatch?

I would like to lock and unlock the rear hatch from the inside of the rear hatch without having to always use the key. I don't have power door locks.

I'm sure you can, as long as you have a fused power and ground.

Not powered, just a manual switch on the inside of the hatch.

Why not take the inside panel off to see what lever(whatever) releases the catch. Then fasten a piece of wire(coat hanger) to it and bring it out through a small hole you make in the panel. Then you would just pull on the wire to release.
