Please help identify these parts :)


These are on my 1999 eclipse gst. The closest thing I can come up with is to call them "trunk cover hinges". They are little clips/posts that slide onto a bar on the trunk cover, that connect the trunk cover to the inside of the trunk - so that the trunk cover goes up and down when the hatchback is opened. I have attached so you can see what I mean. the last pic is of a broken "trunk cover hinge", that is, the post piece on the end has broken off. I want to know what they are officially called so I can get a couple more to make my trunk cover work properly again smile.gif

If I were you I would just rig something up. You would be looking at a whole new cargo cover just for those hinge pieces.
