[DML] Re: Engine Bay Cover

[Carson Clark <cnsandog@xxxx>]

someone told me that they have made a hook and attached it the louvres
then open the engine bay and hook it onto the louvres. Assuming the
shocks are in good shape it should easily hold them both up.


I also think they removed the original arm that is used to hold up the
hatch because they didnt need it anymore.
