we really need to take those instructions down because they dont work too well and lead to problems with the trunk lining up and closing properly.

i had my trunk lid welded to brackets that are welded to the swing arms and it works much better, plus i use the stock bolts to hold the trunk in place when it doesnt flop.

pm me with questions.

not hard.. took 30 minutes. you need someone who knows how to weld and you need to be comfortable with you trunk being connected to your car perminantly.

Yeah Chris and I did his trunk a little different than those instructions too and it lines up perfectly. Check my webpage under project cars for more info.
