Sounds like the resistance for your hatch is quite a bit stronger than my 2011. Mine takes a bit of a pull, but easily done with one finger. The tricky part is pulling your hand out before getting severed off! I should probably invest in the clear tape as well as my gf won't risk losing a finger either

Should be an easy install.

Hand wax and full detail. Took hours but much worth. She's happy <3

My wife and a buddy and his wife went to Beau's Brewery yesterday. I drove the Z and it was about 1.25hr drive each way down some nice back roads. Spent a couple hours there and had a good meal on the patio.
Wifey had to drive home for safety reasons

She did a good job.

I'd ask my girlfriend if she'd be interested and we could head up as well. Only a 3 hr drive. At worst I'd find a cheap overnight hotel.
