- Triangle hinges with screws (from a hardware store)
- Drill
- T-30 Torx bit
- A second person
- Small piece of wood to hold trunk level (optional)
Step 1
Once you pop your trunk, there are brackets that hold your trunk lid to the car. On these brackets are 4 screws, 2 on the left & 2 on the right. Have your second person help you hold the trunk as you remove the screws, and completely remove the deck lid.
Step 2
Take the new hinge & put the hinge part on top of the trunk bracket and mark the hole (that's on the hinge) on the BACK side of the bracket. If you got a question let me know on that step. I could only get 1 screw there but you may be able to get both screws there.
Step 3
DONT DRILL THE HOLE ALL THE WAY THROUGH. JUST ENOUGH TIL YOU GET A LITTLE HOLE ON THE FRONT SIDE OF THE BRACKET (front side being where you put the factory screws in & the back side being the flat part that goes against your trunk lid).
Step 4
Once you get the screws that came w/ the hinges in the BACK side off the bracket on both sides, get your second person to help you put the trunk lid back on the brackets and hold the trunk while you get the FACTORY screws back in the front side of the brackets.
Step 5
Take the hinge & press it against the inside trunk lid & mark the holes from the hinge onto the inside trunk lid. Drill your holes (AGAIN NOT ALL THE WAY THROUGH) and screw in the hinge to the inside trunk lid.
Step 6
Now to get it to work you just take those 4 factory trunk screws out and it will fold in half. Just fold your trunk to where it looks level and put the wood (or whatever you used) on the ledge at the bottom of the back window, & the other end between the trunk lock & the filler piece on the inside of the trunk. You may need to extend some of the wires going to your brake lights in order for the trunk to flip up all the way.
