WHOA! if you saw that groupbuy for $50, don't buy it since it costs $5 to do that. There is one member on this site that has done this but i'll leave it up to him to reveal how to do it

Tutrle is the one that has it. i tryed. i couldn't get the trunk to seal right, so i put it all back to normal. but $40 or $50 is a rip off, it cost maybe $10 for everthing. good luck to you, if you get it to work let us know.

Just do it the way Turtle did. $5-$10 and a little intuition...

Anyone who spends $40 on that ought to be slapped, HARD!! Come on, what I have only cost me $5. HOwever, I am not finished with it. I an going to brace it and add a soleniod to hold it regularly. This should run another $10-$15, bringing it to about $25 for the whole thing, fully custom. If anyone wants this done to their car, I would do it for them for $100.

And, no. I will not tell anymore on how to do it. I have said enough inthe past about it. I am glad a lot of people like it, but I didn't expect a reaction like this from everyone. Sorry.

Seriously. Turtle has said he didn't want to post a DIY about his trunk, so why continue to nag him about it? I haven't looked at my trunk all that much, but I'm sure if sat there and checked it out and thought about if for a little bit I could figure it out. Just like I've been thinking of this taillight conversion, just need to take a waltz over to the junkyard with some clippers and do a little barshin'.
