So I had no idea not everyone knows about the handle on the back of the trunk... See the handle on the right hand side of the pic:



So instead of closing your trunk by touching the outside of the trunk, just use the handle.. I didn't realize it was such a nice feature till I was in Utah with an Impala rental and when I went to close the trunk, there was no handle and always got dirt/crap all over my hands when closing the trunk.

Just thought I'd bring it up..with a pic

 

Ooops...I guess I should've said the back of the trunk lid

 

Yeah this handle is pretty handy when you want to close your trunk but don't want to dirty it.

 

Hmm... I've seen this there, but never actually used it to close the trunk... probly be good in snowy situations

 

Love this feature, so I don't leave fingerprints on the trunk.

 

nice pic

i have a clear plate cover on mine so i usually use that to close my trunk

 

Thanks, never knew that handle was there. Then again, it took me 6 months to discover the handle on the outside of the trunk (I assumed you had to open it with the fob or from inside..silly me).

 

Thanks for the info. I never looked there so I didn't know it was there. No more fingerprints on the trunk lid.

 

I was the guilty (ignorant) party. But it was worth driving to Chicago just to find this out.

 

 

Wow...TRU, I can't believe that you just found this. I thought everyone knew this by now. What a



But yeah, I love this little feature. It's nice touch and it annoys me when other people don't use it when closing my trunk.

 

I noticed the handle almost right away when I got the car, but I never remember to use it. I open and close my trunk daily so I leave fingerprints all over the trunk

 

Well slap my around and call me a ... I guess I learn something new everyday on A-TSX!

 

'R's not the n00b. I am.

 

Um...I knew about this feature the next day I got my car... I'm just letting everyone else know (who doesn't) cause at a meet this weekend, a couple of guys had no idea it was there...

*cough* *cough* *clutch* *cough*

 

Actually... JOZMAN didn't know it was there too

He showed up like 10-15 minutes after you left...

 

Yeah, I figured that would happen. Oh well.... I wanted to get back with some daylight still left anyway. Sorry JOZMAN.

 

oh I'm sure there'll be another time
