After I installed the spoiler..my hatch doesn't seem to want to open when I pull the latch. it really hasn't bothered me much since I use the ghetto 'seatbelt pull' method. But I was just wondering if any of you who have heavy hatches have this hassle and if any of you found a fix for it.
Other than taking off the spoiler or getting new shocks. (my shocks were brand new when I got the new hatch and spoiler) Thanks, Malek -------------------- |

i got the same problem, i think it is alot due to the cold but some of it is also due to the extra weight of the blocks, anyone ever changed these out before? how hard would it be for new trunk struts
