1. With trunk open, mark the trunk lid at the top of the stock brackets.
2. Remove your trunk lid by unbolting 4 bolts. Do not remove the stock brackets, only the trunk lid.
3. Attach the flat side of the enclosed hinge to trunk lid below the marked. With the bottom of the hinge facing down.
4. You will have to bend hinge.
5. With help reattach trunk lid to stock brackets using curved hinge. Be sure to pre-drill all holes before mounting new hinge. This hinge will create the fold down effect.
6. Connect enclosed latches about 2 inches from the bottom of the trunk lid. Be sure they are mounted on the inside of the stock brackets.
7. Mark a spot on the stock bracket to drill to allow the latches to latch. Be sure the latch will latch tightly. If it doesn't latch tightly you may have to replace the stock bottom bolts each time you want to fold down you trunk lid.
Can someone who has a flip-flop trunk tell me the part numbers or models you used, where you buyed it or put some close view pictures of theses parts so I can go to the store get the right ones.
Yeah its pretty tight, I just did mine, and little trial and errors, but it looks great. If gays have any question just email me, I'll try help you out with it.
