My car was disassembled for painting many years ago and put together hastily. Most things I dig into need hardware, or adjusting or replacement. The front trunk handle is the latest.
It never looked like a stock handle should. There is a chrome cylinder, 5mm to 6mm in diameter sticking up a bit from the handle. That stops the handle from going into the handle mount so the whole handle sticks out a bit and wobbles. When I took it apart, I noticed the small stop screw on the handle slider is not installed. It does function correctly, just with a wobbly handle in the holder, the holder mount is tight to the car body. Questions Do I just press that small chrome cylinder down until it is even on both sides? What does it do? What are the specs for that stop screw? Cant see any details in the PET. Will I have adjust the cable or sleeve when I get it put back together correctly. Cheers |

I think my fiberglass bumper is mounted from the frunk. I'll look more carefully but I was looking at it before I closed the lid. I saw some bolts in there, not sure what they are for yet.

QUOTE(NARP74 @ Jul 29 2023, 03:38 PM)  I think my fiberglass bumper is mounted from the frunk. I'll look more carefully but I was looking at it before I closed the lid. I guess it could be but most are mounted at the front of the wheel well. You turn the wheel to one side to have the room to access the two bolts. |
