Just wanted to say that I am very happy with the front trunk shock kit from CAMP914, thanks Craig! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smilie_pokal.gif)
My springs were shot and would not keep the front trunk lid open all the way. They couldn't be adjusted anymore and I was tired of the lid slowly sliding down when opened. Craigs kits are easy to install, took me on 15 min during lunch today (I work from home) Here's a few pics: The KIT Attached image(s)

Vise grips & A LARGE screw driver. I used the visegrips to pull the spring forward and used the screw driver to lift it over the mounting tab, not easy but it worked. Like I said my springs were shot so it wasn't that hard to pull the tension off a little. The hard part was not to let go of the spring before it was done recoiling, smacked my ring finger, but I will live (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)
