Simple little video today. I know when I first brought my C7 home I was closing the trunk just like I did my C5. Then TCG noticed the hand hold...duh. Anyway, just for those that remember the pain of the C5/C6 hatches that we "got used to." Hope this helps someone!

In the C5 you had to practically slam it to close it all the way. That or leave fingerprints all over from pushing it closed all the way. Just a little help for anyone coming from that community. The hand hold makes it seem a lot less like slamming it shut. That's all.

We just lower it take a mirco cloth and gently push it down in the middle of the hatch.
