Default !!For 370Z Owners with the Stuck Hatch Release Issue!!

I also went to my dealer and got the revised Springs, it only helps a little and it did not solve the problem. I tried a few different things with pennies and washers and they did not really help much. Gave up for a long while until recently and this is my newest attempt. It seems to be working!
I used two of these rubber stick on's on each side, one on the bottom as pictured and one inside the spring mechanism and it seems to have solved the problem. I also have a EVO-R high wing and it pops open on the first try now...
