Don't forget to buy a #155 spring, crush one end about 1/2 way and squeeze on the male portion of the trunk latch. Trunk will pop up a little when you open it. Saw this on another thread. Brilliant!

Where did you get the reflective decals? My local shops only have 1" 3M reflective tape and yours looks like one big piece but to size, which I like better.

thanks!

i used a piece of gutter cover screen from home depot, 2 or 3 bucks. you can form it to the inside of the opening. i glued it on with goop adhesive, cause that's what i had on hand. high temp silicone would work as well.

Looks good Coz.. thx for the info. How long does the adhesive take to dry? Or the silicone?

Host your pictures on something like Photobucket. Copy the IMG code for the picture and paste into the body of your message.

Back to the thread: great looking and affordable mods! I need to do some of these.

Is the #155 spring the proper length also, or does it need to be trimmed so the closure is OK ?
