Hi all,
Just wondering if the trunk supports have any adjustment ? My trunk on the left side is about 1/8" lower all the way along the top, and you can really see it from the back.
Thanks for the input.

I'm assuming you don't mean the 2 little spring thingy's as that had no affect.

The latch ring mounted to the inside center of the trunk (not the lid) is adjustable. I had the same type of problem. You will have to take off the plastic cowling on the back of the trunk (this is easy). And it may take you a few tries with a ratchet.

I never even thought of adjusting that! I had to adjust that on my Taurus too.

Ok I just tried that, it seemed to work quite well. I raised the bracket to it's max height and tightened it up. It's a bit too high on the right side, but you don't even notice now!
Thanks all,
