OK, yesterday afternoon I went to close my rear trunk and heard a snap! One of the bolts in the hinge assemby area completely snapped in half. Now I'm not sure how to fix this. I can't get either half out. Has anyone experienced this? I took the trunk lid off and am considering taking the whole hinge assembly off, but am concerned with the spring assembly.

Hey again,
Does that mean you got it out?
I the springs are a problem just put a bar stock in it and move it where you want it.
If the bolt peices are still in there put something like kano oil or pb blaster on the bolts to loosen them up. let them soak.
This should work.
Any time you start to hearing any creaking on doors trunks etc. lubricate to avoid frture problems.
