Default del sol trunks raise?

I do not own a del sol but am HIGHLY intrested in buying one for lthe past 8 years. I have sen a few pics online where the trunk is raised straight up and is parallel to the car. Do all del sols do that or is it certain years or models?

Thanks for the post. I figured it looked cooler than it was, I don't really see anybody being able to really use it for storage. Sucks that you can't get them like that in the states though

As I understand it, swapping this system in is more of a conversion than a swap. It's expensive, a pain in the ***, and when (not if) the gears strip out or other parts fail you will have trouble finding parts.
