hatch removal

So, I took off my old hatch lid that had some rust holes and a missing wiper. I put the new one on but forgot how the bolts should be put in on the support struts at the bottom. I don't have a owner's or repair manual, so... Can someone help?

wat?

It's a bolt. You find the hole and put it in.

It's like having sex. Though with sex, there are many diagrams online to help you out with that.



Does that help?

the hatch does not even bolt to the struts


the hatch has two hinges with two bolt holes per hinge. There are four holes on the bottom side of the roof towards the back.

line it up, and bolt it in

this had me rolling

The supports that lift the hatch when you open it. There are two blots/ screws (one on each side) that attach the supports to the body. When I removed my hatch they fell out and the washers came off. I don't remember which side of the bolts the washers go on (there's like two washers for both bolts).

Probably a washer on either side if there are 2 of them.

That's what I thought, I don't have a manual or nothing.

Quote :

A washer is a thin plate (typically disk-shaped) with a hole (typically in the middle) that is normally used to distribute the load of a threaded fastener.

just think of it that way

I know wut a washer is thanks. Forget it, does someone has a repair manual for sale.

nissan does

or just go to autozone and pick up a chilton/haynes/helms

I tried google, I can't find the PDF. I think I'm going to end up ordering it from autozone.

I dropped the bolt and everything came apart. Then I was rushing and I really didn't pay attention to how it was setup so...
