Flip Flop Trunk
Well I was bored and decided to go through some old pics. I ran across the ones from when I did my flip flop trunk forever ago and figured I'd throw them on here.
Remove the carpet from the trunk lid
Remove the stock trunk lid
Just like this
And This
Install the hinges
On both
Find out where you need to drill for the holes on the lid for the hinges
Take the hinges off and make a small cut on the tip of the arm so it will lay properly when displayed
Make sure you use something to catch the shards
Just like that
Let your trunk know how lucky it is that it’ll have this cool feature
Install the hinges again
Make sure everything looks good
You’ll need to put something between the hinge and bar to rest smoothly when displayed. *Don't use this jelly crap.
Install the cotter pin in the piece of metal you made and drilled
Here's another pic
And another
Do the other side
Just like that
I used putty/cement stuff to make a mold on the tip so I can shape how I want it to rest
Shape it and sand as needed
Hook everything back up
There you go
And there
Any questions or need more information let me know.
