Couple of pictures of my awesome new boot!
« on: 03 June 2008, 19:06:46 »




The old boot handle snapped, so as I was having a hard time finding a replacement, and needed to use the car, just got a whole boot from a 2002 3.2 Elite

Has the Prodrive spoiler too  8-)

Unlock the car, the boot pops open.  Didn't have to alter any wiring or fiddle with anything at all!  Really was just 'plug and play'

Although, it pops open EVERY time the car is unlocked...  hence the thread in Ice & Electrics about the Alarm ECU...

Lights will get sorted later on, as will spraying it the right color.  I've got the lights for the body to go on, but needs a bit of work to get them to fit!

So how do you drive it then ??? or do you slam it shut everytime you unlock the car and it stays ? ?

Slam it shut evertime I unlock it, it only opens when unlocking via central locking, not when locking.
