I love my trunk popper and I show my car all the time at area car shows and cruise-ins. Unless I tell people I added the trunk popper probably 90% of them would have no idea that it didn't come stock with the truck popper since most brand cars do have them.
Also, at the current price of gasoline you could have driven all over town looking for just the right size and shape of spring and when you got yours installed you could have said that you got the spring for 50 cents and only spent $20.00 on gasoline.
You may not need anything to repair this problem. Check the mounting plate for the stricker it maybe loose. If so you can remove the license plate holder assembly to gain access and tighten the 4 bolts that hold the plate to the body. Its a simple fix, takes 10 minutes.
Got a link for this thing? It's a bit annoying to have to pop the trunk on my vert and then open & close the door to get enough space to put my fingers under it to open it. Plus, that technique doesn't work with the top down.
Try a little WD-40 on all the joints in the trunk lid. Did mine and it raises like it used to.
