Installation

1. Preparation: First, ensure that your vehicle is in a safe and stable position. Use appropriate jack stands if necessary. Gather all the tools you'll need, such as wrenches and screwdrivers.
2. Removing the Old Hinge: Locate the existing left - hand trunk hinge. There are usually bolts or nuts that attach the hinge to both the trunk lid and the vehicle body. Use a wrench to carefully remove these fasteners. You may need to apply masking tape on the trunk lid and body to mark the position of the currently installed hinge for easier alignment of the new one. With the help of an assistant, gently remove the old hinge from the vehicle.
3. Installing the New Hinge: Position the new TRUNK HINGE LEFT HAND 1092820 - 00 - E on the vehicle. Align it with the marks you made earlier or with the mounting points on the body. Install the nuts or bolts that attach the hinge to the vehicle body first and hand - tighten them. Then, with the assistance of your helper, place the trunk lid on the hinge and align it properly. Hand - tighten the bolts that attach the hinge to the trunk lid.
4. Adjustment and Final Tightening: Close the trunk and check the gap and flushness between the trunk lid and the vehicle body. If necessary, adjust the hinge bolts and the trunk latch to modify the trunk lid gap and flush. Once you're satisfied with the alignment, open the trunk again and torque the bolts to the recommended specifications.
