pins on the lid and body in the left side of the trunk go through the holes on each end of the shock and then a little washer slides over the end of the pin to hold the shock in place.sigpic

the hinges are i believe, your problem would be with the lower strut mount i thinkYour signature picture has been removed since it contained the Photobucket "upgrade your account" image.

the lower mount is on the thing that holds the jack in place. the upper mount is on the hinge. you could drill a hole and use bolts with a lock nut, or you could weld the little pins in place. i dont remember what the trunk hinge looks like in a coupe or sedan, so i don t know if those pins are there for you already.sigpic
