Tighter seal in latch for trunk???

I remember someone saying that you can move the latch down on the trunk, for a more secure/tight seal. I would like to do this so I have less rattling in the trunk lid, but I really do not know how, and I could not find anything under search. If any of you know, please tell me how. Thanks.

i have an annoying clunking in my trunk lid too. Even on a suttle bump i heard it clunking around. I checked everything possibel and narrowed it down to the lid itself.

anyone have a fix for this problem??

There are 2 rubber gromets located on the trunk deck lid near the ends. They look like black bump stops. They are actually the adjustment for the trunk lid. They have a cork screw thread on them. Turn them counter clockwise and they come out more. This gives the trunk less free play and makes the latch grab tighter.
