Search around, I don't think you even need a kit. Not really sure, but I remember someone saying the ebay kits were just rip offs and you could do it yourself.

if you do it yourself make sure u use the 4 in. galvanized hinges that makes it not flimsy. 4in. locks too. $20 at the most.

maybe next time you just need to post this in the appearance/cosmetic forum to avoid criticism.

What the hell is a flip flop trunk kit? Do you mean the cover for the spare tire? The one in a 92-95 Sedan is strong as hell, you could sleep on it. But they dont flip up. If thats not what your talking about the forget the last 2 sentenses.

i think he means a trunk that, instead of pivoting at the rear edge, pivots in the middle. its quite useless, and probably gets in the way alot but hey, "it looks good" :X

here you go. This is what a flip flop trunk kit is. Pretty useless if you ask me, but whatever. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors...36521

that is ******* stupid. doesn't look like a very functional way of opening your trunk - how are you supposed to fit big stuff in there? you'd be better off just buying some
