I need to remove a hinge and repair a oval socket to fix a nasty rattle. Anyone else have this issue? Drivers side, 71 Cuda. I removed the rods before by going inside the trunk with a light to remove them - they should have less tension. You could mark the holes on each side or take pictures - to get it back the same way. They only see Stars... when hit by a Mopar!
