Default HELP! How to Replace a Civic Trunk !!

:wtc:Someone stole my spoiler off my 2000 Civic I just bought another trunk with a spoiler someone I found off Ebay and I wanted to switch out the trunks since I now have holes in it as they tore it off...... I was wondering if any 1 knew the cost of labor for putting the other trunk on or can you do that yourself if so how is it done? ???

It should just be four bolts, maybe an electrical connector or two. Have you even looked??

it's not hard just 4 bolts and you have to disconnect the trunk opener thing and take out the cable and wires. then just put everything back together the same way. you will need 10mm socket and 8mm socket
