Just did this to my Giulietta using 45mm springs. Works like a charm. Used 40mm first but not strong enough. Thanks for this awesome practical DIY hack!

Svaka čast, ovo ću sigurno da uradim na mojoj Giulietta-i.

Simple yet excellent diy project. Thanks for the upload.

Nice work, hope this will work on my 166!

Very nice, i know what i’m gonna do the upcoming week😉

Awesome video!

Thank you very much i will try it to my Giulietta... very nice video

Svaka čast! Pozdrav iz Srbije!

After some time the strain on the lock causes it to bend. Some people also reported deformations of the trunk cover, caused by the forces it must withold with those springs, while it's closed. Give it a year or two.

Well thought of and developed.

Bloody brilliant 👏,

Great video, How long do the springs need to be for an Alfa Romeo Mito?

Perfect!

Super 😮❤

Would love to just buy both the hole rod assembled second hand, you could definitely earn a little seeling those in alfa groups

Super

Great video very smart DIY hack , what size were the springs. Did you get the measurement from the wear marks on the struts for your spring cut size?

Inwant to do this on my 159 sw but my boot struts are to powerfull and have no brake at the end..they just lift like mad if i dont hold the boot..i.m afraid it will break from the welding points

What is the inner diameter of the rubber washer ???

i have a 1.3 mito diesel ,any change in the dimension of the spring?Can you make one set for me (i pay for)

Excelent as always ! I remember you did a same dyi for the 147 too.. I am wondering if that trick will work on GT too. Could be a great trick .. Keep the great work my friend ! 👍

Hi ArcGarage, Are you going to be doing the Alfa Romeo 147 Bose retrofit instal video someday? I'm sure that you will help A LOT of people with this (especially me)

WOW great hack!!!!

What kind of springs should I ask for at the store? What are they used for?

Bonjour je voudrais savoir les pièces qu'il faut Pour faire ça s'il vous plaît 😢

Does this not hurt the latch mechanism at the bottom? It seems like this way there's always a pull on the boot upwards. Basically you try to open it even if it's closed.

Fantastic, shame not useful in all kind of cars (as GT´s, not?). Very good idea👌

Pozdrav, radi li na alfi 159?

But if you click the unlock button on the remote (not only the rear one) will not open the back automatically?

Hey, I did this to my Giulietta a couple months ago and worked like a charm. Recently it's not been opening by itself anymore. I changed the struts for new ones again and no luck. Any idea why?

Odlican video. Sta mislis da li ce se sabiti opruge tokom vremena. Koliko dugo ga ti koristis?

I'm not understanding how the bottom support of the spirng stay in place. How it cannot slide down?

what is the force of the hydraulic cylinders? Mine in 410 Nm are not sufficient, the trunk only opens halfway, maybe better with 420 Nm?

❤

Pozdrav drug, super posao. Jedino što me zanima gdje si našao te gumice dole koje zaustave feder da sklizne dole kada zatvaraš? Jer ne znam šta bih stavio tu da pod pritiskom ne sklizne sve dole mora nešto jako biti.

hey man! i want you to answer me a question.. u can change on the GT the gasket of the cover from the healight (xenon) because my healight go foggy… or i can put from the non xenon, or where i can find it ? has a code to find and buy?

I’d like to do this on my GT but would think the rear hatch and screen are probably just too heavy 😔

Is this also possible with only strong gas springs?

Pozdrav od alfiste iz slo

I have a problem on the Alfa 159. The switch for opening the fifth door when the temperature is 25 or more degrees C works perfectly, however, as the outside temperature drops when I press the switch, it takes more and more time for the door to open. Below 5 degrees C, the switch no longer works. otherwise, the door opens remotely without any problems. Also, below 5 degrees C, I can't open the car with the remote key. I enter the car with a mechanical key and after 10-15 minutes of driving, the central locking works. The car has a new battery. In summer, this problem does not exist. otherwise, the car starts in summer and winter without any problems. Help me.

Hi Do you have the dimensions for the springs for an Alfa Mito 2009 as well ? Best regards

Which springs did you use?

Hi, do they only exist for Alfa Romeo? Thank you

Can this be done on a GT or is it too heavy

Pas d'infiltration d'eau ?? Même chose dans 159 sw provoque après certains temps infiltration d'eau par jointure de tolle dans coin en haut de pilier.

J'ai fait tout comme tu as fait et mon coffre s'ouvre a peine de 5cm :( pourquoi stp ?

kako si zadovoljan sa alfom i koji je motor ?

Di si kupio ove opruge? Ne mogu ih nigdje naci

"promosm"

Lol just buy stronger gas shocks and replace them with the stock ones much easyer

I've heard that when done to a Mito, there is a risk of damaging the trunk lid - I have heard that it can bend the lid... Do you have any experience with doing this on a Mito?

Thank you very much i will try it to my Giulietta... very nice video
