I will definitely be trying this! Will respond to this comment with results.
Wanna buy my Saab 9-3 2004 arc from Sweden?
That's so cool
You don't need a bungee cord to accomplish that if you look closely where the spring connects on the backside there's two holes the springing occupies one already take the spring off relocated to the lower hole reattach spring on lowest tension possible adjust as needed
My convertible has struts so might be able to get stronger struts to open it
Gonna try this on my saab 93 convertible
Like this idea an wanna do this! Keep up the videos
I gonna make it much easier for you guys-turn over the spring on the right,job done
Cool little hack, lubricating the hinges helps and tying a knot in the bungee increases the tension by incremental amount to get the tension spot on
i am surprised you don't have a convertible
Does this work on a 1999 9-5 Aero Sedan?
Would it work on a 93 convertible. It has gas struts.
yeah i did trunk open mod way before u 😉 how i did it and how it works https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=87B0fzzZdkk
I did the same, but I am from Poland and I spent only 1$:) Still working.
Good tip
I've tried doing this with just adjusting the springs, but the trunk lid accellerates so much at the end that I fear for my rear window.
This was much better. Just need to adjust it so the bungee cord doesnt hit the springs and make sounds
Can you do it on a 9-5?
I did it, Menards had bungee cords for $1.75!
My saab 9-3 convertible is leaking a lot of water.. through the roof and near the speakers in the back
Nice hack 🙂
Target distilled water
Do you think this will help stop the spring from squeaking? I have that issue and wonder if messing with it will help.
