2001 Mitsubishi Galant LSMake sure you put the bolts back on when closing the trunk. Keep a ratchet set in trunk at all times!
i wish you guys would have told me how unstable the truck is after u do this. I did mine today and the truck wobbles alot opening and closing
Make sure you put the bolts back on when closing the trunk. Keep a ratchet set in trunk at all times!
mine shuts fine, it latchs, its just shakky, i'm going to look at it tommorrow and see what i can do to fix w/o having to put the bolts back in each time
nope no water in the trunk... they're plugged
Did mine today, took me about 20 minutes, broke like 4 self tapping screws, but at the end it looks sweeeeeeeeet, just before closing the boot i have placed the bottom bolts back on either side, without using ratchet or anything, just hand tighten.Next on the list clear sides..Only gets better and better
yeah thats what you should do, just hand tighten the screws and it's fine.Originally Posted by NZGALANTBOY
badmitsu, if you wont put the screws back in at the botton, in closed position the trunk is likely not be aligned close to rear windshield.
I know this is old but hood pins work great and are lot faster at getting in held down to close....Also to get your trunk sitting perfectly level you can put rubber feet under the brace....
yeah, that's what i'm gonna do to mine
i just finished mine up tonight, took me bout 25 minutes. it's pretty tight, only pain is having to screw the bolts in and out all the time, lol
i see you did it, nice jobyeah, that's what i'm gonna do to mine

get some wing screws so you dont need a socket wrench every time
good idea, thanks krispy
Looks cool but its not exactly my flavor. But do you 8)
here's mine....
nice. do you leave your bolts in when you close your trunk too?
yea i put them back in each time..... its sucks but o well!
haha, yeah. ever thought of maybe hooking up some air hydraulics to the trunk? like in minivans?
sounds like a good idea, it would be alot of work though w/ the "flip flop" trunk.
man i loved it!!! the pics are perfect
Damn this is tempting....
Does the square bar across the 2 braces work at stabilizing the trunk?
so if i do this and i dont like it or it wobbles to much can i put it back the original way or that wont work anymore?
Yes, that is correct. lol even if it went out of style 3 years ago! :D
