smooth boot - sam - 25-08-2013
How easy is it to smooth a boot? And is it best to get to get it welded were the boot lock/pop used to be?

Make sure its a ph3 boot mate otherwise youll get a massive rust bubble under the rubber seal like mine has :/

Im looking into this.
Deffo get it welded. Much better.
My problem is the popper and how to wire it in.
I can remember dum doing a guide for this but he just used bubbly gum to fill his hole. But hey if it works then it works.

RE: smooth boot - C.A.R. - 26-08-2013
Mine was welded, I can't take credit for it, but I did wire up the popper, much easier than you'd expect, probably took less than an hour and that included running a signal wire from the boot hatch, down the C-pillar and to the control panel on the drivers side of the car. Hook it up to permanent live though, or you have to f*ck about turning the ignition on to open your boot.

RE: smooth boot - 306newbie - 29-09-2013
you could also just use some fiberglass from behind to hold a metal plate in place then a little skim of filler on the outside

can't see the benefit of fibreglassing a piece of metal in to only fill/skim over when you may aswell just fill over the fibreglass!?
RE: smooth boot - Eeyore - 30-09-2013
there is a guide. just put the popper on the rear wiper wiring. best and easiest way really!
