Help With Trunk

99HonAccord · Nov 21, 2010

Hello 6gen members,
Well I have a question maybe someone can help me I tried to look through the threads but didn't find anything that can help me. Well I have a System in my car (99 6gen sedan), I decided to put 2 10" midwoofers on my deck, I had to cut holes on my deck etc. I had to take out the 2 thin bars that go across the trunk to hold the trunk up. In order to fit the mids in the deck i had to take them out, Now its becoming Annoying me having to hold this heavy trunk while i'm trying to get something from the trunk etc. I was thinking about putting shocks to try and hold it up i was wondering what you guys suggest and if you guys know of a DIY thread that can help me thanks guys for your time

mike (lashlee on here) is the only one who i'm aware of who has converted the trunk to struts. should be the same procedure as adding them to the hood...your only solution is bolting/welding...theres just no other way to do it, short of carrying a 2x4 in the trunk.

btw, your pics are marked as private...
