2011 9-3 convertible trunk top storage cable Posted by Barry Saaber [Email] (#2686) [Profile/Gallery] (more from Barry Saaber) on Wed, 4 May 2022 16:18:08 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
My beautiful 2011 9-3 convertible has an issue with the top storage compartment in the trunk. The cable that has a pin that runs horizontally to lift the board has come loose from its bracket (see photo). It appears that there's been some kind of snap ring that held it in place but it's lost in the abyss. I've included an illustration. I've tried to install a "E" style snap ring but there's no physical space to get it on. So I created an aluminum bracket (see photo) that secured by the three screws that hold the board to the bracket which has a lever holding the cable in place to the outboard side. It's working so far but I would like to make it correct. Any advice is greatly appreciated thank you Barry
