LOL, looks a little oddball to me, imo. If you want to be different, this is a good mod!

It is "4 real".

It's just hinges is all. A neat little mod if you want to show off a large audio setup in the trunk. And it's fairly cheap as well.

IIRC there are only 2 bolts per side holding the arms to the trunk lid. Remove all 4 bolts and the trunk lid is in your hands. Now replace just 2 of the 4 bolts and add a hinge. But i suspect alignment of the trunk lid may be difficult, as it will add alittle more than 1/4" of height...doesn't really seem to add any more access, in fact seems to hinder it. Also, if you have a rear spoiler, better wear a brain bucket (helmet).

hmmm

as far as access, i don't really care, its for a car show coming up. im just going to take it back off after the show.
