Sedan Trunk Lift

I dont know about the rest of the sedan owners, but my trunk had problems staying open on hills/driveways. I got whacked by it too many times to count so i finally did something about it! Now all i need is a hood lift


Heres the vid:

I have a little piece of cardboard that folds into a triangle and fits perfectly.. lol

I know what you mean, I've been hit about 20 times, and 3 were pretty mean - I caught the lock part that sticks down right in the dome.

I would love to see a DIY, or at least a list of the parts used.

Dude I was hit once in Spine perfect shot my knees just collapse and there i was on the floor rolling in pain staring at my HB far away while the SD laughed at me.

I got hit nasty this weekend but it was my wife fault she didn't see me and pushed the trunk closed BAM!! On the Head! I bet tht Demon SD made her do it....

I got so many stories those where the most painful but being hit about 20 times is just bad I might have around 16. I'm still glad the HB is mine the Hatch holds up nicely
