Is this the correct attachment point for the frunk handle spring? It doesn't look right to me, but I can't see where else it would go. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)
Thanks. |

How do you lubricate the frunk handle, I really have to pull hard on the handle to get it open? Worried the cable is going to break off. |

Worried the cable is going to break off. @Seattle_914 It's almost always that the latch is super sticky and a good cleaning/lube takes care of it. I did have one latch that was worn to the point that the movement of the components was compromised and no amount of cleaning would have fixed it - so it was replacement time. |
