Boot Hinges

Post by BELLETTPR10 »

HI

The boot lid hinges come off don't they? I have all hardware off of it but they dont want to budge,don't want to force it or bend them , maybe just paint and age holding them on still ? I'm considering having them chromed...

Thanks
Mark

yep, there's 2 nuts under the panel between the bootlid at the back window on each side, and there's another 2 bolts into the bootlid itself (1 is hidden under the boot rubber seal) on each side again. it's not uncommon for them to rust in and break off either....
hope this helps.
