Step 1:

With the trunk open mark the trunk lid at the top of the stock brackets by either scratching the paint, or using a colored marker.

Step 2:

Lay towels along the side of your car, and with a friend remove your trunk lid by unbolting the stock 4 bolts. Do not remove the stock brackets, only the trunk lid. Either cut or disassemble the zip ties for the cables on the side of the hinge to fully remove the trunk lid.

Step 3:

With the lid off the stock hinges, lay the new hinge on the lid for marking. The new hinge should be flat side down, with the circular part of the new hinge facing you, not the lid. Flatten the hinge on the lid and mark the lid for drilling. Drill out the holes you marked. (Be sure that the holes arent too big!). Using the provided screws, attach hinge to the trunk lid by hand with a philips head screwdriver, not a drill. Repeat this step with the other side. Once both hinges are on, you are ready to re-attach the trunk lid.

Step 4:

With help, lift trunk lid to stock brackets. With the lid flipped down like it will be when your finished, line up the new hinge on the stock hinge for marking. Mark the holes on the stock hinges to pre-drill your new holes. Put lid back on the floor, and drill out the holes. When new holes are drilled, attach new hinges to the stock ones using provided screws. As said before, screw in the screws by hand, not a drill. Once all screws are in place, the trunk lid should be in the flipped down position. The lid should rest on the car in a flattened position. If it is flipped down too much, you may need to bend the upper hinge down to allow the lid to rest against the car.

Step 5:

Lift lid to the stock normal position and re-attach stock bolts to hold lid up. Connect enclosed latch about 2 inches from the botton of the trunk lid. Be sure they are mounted on the inside of the stock brackets, and are flat and not angles up.

Step 6:

Mark a spot on the stock bracket to drill to allow the latch to lock. Be sure the latch will lock tightly and there is no play.

Step 7:

If it doesnt latch tightly you may have to take in and out the stock bottom bolts each time you want to fold down your trunk lid. (This may work better if your not going to fold it down all the time.)
