3 - cavaliers are some of the easier cars to mod lol
it may not be bypassing the language filter because i dont think its a word thats filtered but just lookin out for you
dont do it .. i did it last week.. dont like it at all.. took it off now im more screwed then b4 i started. If your gonna do it dont do it with the strap hindges atleast
I can tell you right now..if you do it you will have one of the corners of your trunk sticking up..I have yet to fix this problem..it sucks
the way i did mine, i have no problems at all... i used the hinges and the pull pin thigys .... its easy
I wouldn't do it. I did it and it didn't seal completely and would pop up in the corners occasionally. Now my trunk doesn't sit right at all.
This is how i learned how to do it. You have to get longer bolts and replace the ones holding the arms to the inside of the trunk, get sone copper pipe and washers a little bigger than the bolt and use them to space the arms about 1.5" depends on what kinda of hinges you have might want to screw the hinges to the end of the arms then to the out side peice of metal where the arms would slide in. If you space the arms down correctly the lid will close right. You could always do some welding on the spacers to strenghten them too. Is that basicly how you guys did yours?
All the ebay kits are is 2 stanley hinges and 2 slide locks. probably paid 3x's what you could have bought the stuff for at your local hardware store. I'm planning on doing mine. Just have to find the parts I had for it. my friend fell victim to ebay flip flop trunk kit and paid like $30 plus for the thing after shipping...

cavi owners: is your all's throttle bodies oval? I have a sunfire and mine is, i was just wondering. gm does some stupid stuff. I always wondered how people got cold air intakes on there. I mean, so maybe they make the pipe oval, but the filter is still round. I know they don't make a special oval filter for j bodies. It took me 2 hours one time to get a cone filter on my throttle body...........
hence why you buy the intake, and the coupler connects the pipe and throttle body, then another coupler will connect the filter to the pipe, alot less headache
This has nothing to do with this post...Kryptic Klown, your car is DAMN SEXAY!!!
