Check out this listing on ebay.
It's for 86-96 corvette trunk/hatch lift supports. Convertible model only.
Maybe I'm not looking in the right place but my 87 has no trunk.

I always go through my trunk to get at my muffler bearings.

I'm not asking for an explanation.
I just thought I would share something with the forum that I thought was funny.
It says for convertible only. Convertibles don't have a hatch or a trunk.
Then there is a picture of a 15 year old honda.
That picture really helps me pinpoint on my convertible where I would use the parts he is selling.

Ummmm... you don't have a hatch? So where do you store your convertible top when you go topless?

That's right...under the rear hatch.

Whatever smack123
I call it a rear deck lid.
You call it a hatch.
Not sure what the propper part name is for it.
Either way, the part we are talking about doesn't use lift supports.

I know what's up my a$$, what's up yours?
