ive been trying for awhile to find a kit or somesort of instructions that i can make my trunk go straight up when i open it does anyone know where i can find this info i know they sell cheap universal kits on ebay buti want somethat that will actually work ect. if anyone knows please help !

yeah, the instructions have been posted many times. just search for flip flop trunk and you'll find em.

here are the directions that i used

Materials:

1 - Small piece of pipe around 1ft long, round enough for bolts to go through.

6 - 3” long bolts. Check step 4 and 5 for details.

2 – Strap hinges, 6-8” long that can pivot 180º

6 – ½” long screws or a rivet gun and some rivets

1 – L bracket for support

Procedure:

1. Cut the one foot pipe into 2” sections. You should have six pieces to use as spacers in step 4.

2. Take off the trunk lid by unscrewing the hex bolts on the bottom side of the trunk lid. Detach all the wires connected to it. You shouldn’t have to cut anything. You might want to have someone help you hold the trunk while you do this.

3. Take out the back dash panel under the window. Fold the back seat down and remove the plastic inserts holding everything in place. They should just pull out, but if they don’t, use a small crowbar. Then remove the interior panels on each side of the trunk opening. They clip together in the back but should just pull right out. Now that those are out of the way, just pull the carpeted piece out. Be careful not to crack it on the rear panels. The seatbelt holes are weak.

4. Remove the bolts that attach the trunk hinges. There should be three on each side. These will be the ones you replace with the 4” bolts.

5. Attach the hinges with the 4” bolts and the 2” spacers in the middle.

6. Mark where to attach the hinges. Get in the trunk and hold the trunk arms down with your hinges flat on the top of the arms. Have a friend place the lid back on. Now, mark where the hinges are on the lid and on the arms. Now take the lid back off.

7. Attach the lid. This is where you can use the rivets or the screws. I prefer rivets because they are flatter. Place the hinges on the lid and drill your holes. Then, put the hinges on the trunk arms, drill the holes, and rivet/screw them in place. Let the arms up slowly. Drill two holes toward the top part of each arm, the attach the support bar. Place the lid on top, line up your holes, and then rivet/screw it in place.

8. See if it shuts. Line up the back corners and then shut it. If it doesn’t shut or it sticks up a little, adjust the rubber bumpers on the bottom of lid.

Notes:
For those of you with big wings, like I had in the last pic, raise the tension bars to the top notch. It won't flip up all the way but it will keep it there when you lift it up; otherwise, you'll be proping it up with a stick. I've seen it done.

After about a month, the bumpers will wear out and you will have to replace them. The best thing I’ve found is to drill out the holes that hold them in place and put in hood bumpers. They are bigger and will last longer.

wow does anyone have any pre-fabricated hingdes or something?.. that i could buy i dont want to go through all the work lol and the universal kits suck
