Default Who has the trunk spring installation tool ?

I just bought the rear spoiler, but I haven't installed the springs yet. I know H and A sells this tool, but I was wondering if someone else might have one that I can use, then send back. I only need it for a day, anyone ?

I hope someone has the tool for you but if not, I wouldn't worry about it too much. I have installed a fairly heavy aftermarket spoiler and I did NOT change the springs. All you need is for the trunk to pop up enough to unlatch. Neither spring will actually lift the trunk lid anyway and once the lid is full open, it stays open unless a gust of wind blows it shut. In this case, the stronger spring won't help either.

I have the tool and can send it to you. PM me your address and I'll mail it out tomorrow by USPS.

I can't imagine changing the springs without the tool!
