Recommended Posts

ok guys anyone with a lowered starlet will know how annoying this is, altho most of us learn to live with it i think ive sorted the problem for the meanwhile.

this is your enemy.

the rubber that allows the bootlid to pin the shelf down is.... well.... its rubbish.

how to fix it.

get some rubber, you can use anything really, but i had some thick black silicone tubing that would do the job which a built up to size in the shape of a block that would fit in the hole in the rubber.

i taped mine together, but you could glue it in if you wish.

and this is the finished result, i stuck a bent piece in the bottom section of the rubber to give it some more support, but im sure you could get away with not doing this.

the boot will be a bit harder to close as its pushing against the shelf now to hold it in place, but that should do the job.

if you have the big pod speakers on your shelf they will still rattle as ive found out, if not then it should be fine now!
