So, I'm looking at the rear trunk, and I have to admit that It's easy for me to see it gone.

I have a few questions to ask, though.

I'm sure bracing is required. Does someone offer a kit, or have all of you made your own? If no one offers a bracing kit, it looks like I could bracet it up, snip out the trunk, then clean up the edges.

Any hints?

Thanks in advance.
