If you can't find a bolt on for your car, you can do what I did and fab up the parts on a pin on type hood to bolt to the factory hinges, and make a latch assembly out of aluminum plate, a return spring and a wood block glued to the lid. Mine saved 35 lbs. I needed to get weight off the back of the car. After the glass trunk lid, I moved the battery to in front of the radiator, and went with lexan in the rear glass. How much weight you need back there is very car specific. I needed a LOT less to make the car work.



Thats pretty neat! Luckily though they made bolt on lids for my car, and they weigh exactly the same as the pin on, just cost a bit more lol
