Hi guys,
I removed the spring/torsion bars that keep open the trunk lid. I am now looking for a simple prop rod to install. Can anyone recommend one and vendor?
Purchased one that uses two shock absorbers and mounts that screw on to the trunk hinges and the trunk. Looks like a nice setup but I would prefer a something that does not require drilling so many holes.
Thanks,
Bill.
