Hey everyone. Does anyone know of a cheap place other than junkyard to purchase a trunk lid for a 1996 SE? I noticed by the inner driver's side spoiler support rust bubbling and it is worse on the inside of the trunk behind the carpet material. How much would it cost ballpark for a new trunk lid unpainted new? Or is it better to gamble a little and find a used one at the junkyard?

I would like to fix the current trunk lid but there isn't a 100% guarantee against the rust coming back. Thanks everyone.

why would u consider it a gamble from a junkyard?? better yet, you can get a 97+ trunk lid which are more resistant to dents or whatever.. just trying to see that u're not limited to the 95-96 lids. BTW- the lights u just swap

 

I have a pearl white OEM trunk lid for sale if you are interested.

Let me know, it's got a spoiler too

 

I meant it is more of a gamble to buy one used that has been exposed to elements over one that is brand new and never used. I'm not knocking buying one at a junkyard, because that's probably what I'll do for economic reasons. I like the 97 lid idea, but will it fit an otherwise 96 back? Or do I need to do other alterations to the rear for the 97+ to fit? Thanks. In that case, do the outer 97+ lights fit the 95-96 body?

 

no alternation needed to fit the lid and the fitment for the lights are the same.
