Default 90 Degree Hood

So I did a search on how to open the hood to the full 90 degrees, but no luck. Any help?

Thanks.

There is a button on the upper backside of the arm holding up the hood. Press it and it will go up to 90 degrees.

Maybe someone will show you a picture. Andrew is good at that.

Just so you know.......there's a button on the bottom of the cylinder that lowers it.

You don't use the same button to go down.

Yeah, thanks. I discovered that after having a minor panic attack when I couldn't get my vertical hood down. Ha ha.

Maybe yours is special......I have one button on the top of the cylinder to go up, and one on the bottom of the cylinder to go down.

I never knew about this! I just went out and tried it. The is Freaking AWESOME!
This car amazes more and more each day.

On the flip side, I am going to hate to replace that particular strut when it finally goes bad... It is probably $150+. But is is very cool.

Thanks for sharing!

Cheers,
KrzyFast
