    Trunk Lift Support

    Hello everyone. So I took out the trunk lift support from my 92 EX 2dr to bend the ends a little bit so I could install some JL 6x9s. When I put them back in they do nothing now and the trunk is so heavy with the spoiler on I cannot even pop it from inside the car. I was wondering if anyone has ever installed trunk shocks or something else thay might work?

    I've seen people keep a 2x4 or a pipe to prop open the trunk, in their car.
    When you bend the supports, it ruins there purpose..

        You're not showing us how to "do it yourself" (in this case I'm thankful) so I'm moving it to the correct section. Only post in the DIY section if you have a guide.
        My Members' Ride Thread - It's a marathon build, not a sprint. But keep me honest on the update frequency!

            its a torsion spring and probably needs preloading before reinstallation. I think theres also more than one notch for the spring to sit in

            I just cut the inch or so off the ends with an angle grinder to let my infinity 6x9's magnet fit.

            Maybe you can install some CD5 trunk struts..
