Question Denver area service

On the '99 you need battery power to open the luggage compartment. And I ran down my battery. So it's to be towed to Denver for service. Any thoughts on who to use or avoid? Fort Collins is closest.

Or, if anyone in/near Denver wants to buy a pristine "99 with 14 k on it the car will be there next week for you to see. e-mail me if interested iin details

Just a thought!

Can the battery be trickle charged through the cigarette lighter enough to open the luggage compartment & switch out the battery in Billings?
