not the best example, but you can kinda see it. The 1990 Fiero (learned this while watching assembly video) had a double decklid which allowed you to open just the engine compartment or Just the Trunk, unless there was a spoiler (in which case they would hit and the engine would have to be open then the trunk) anyway. Has anyone tried to do something similar? A Engine lid and a trunk Lid? A button that pops both or a button that just pops the engine lid for shows?

Assembly video, at about 45 minutes it gets to decklid.

the zimmer quicksilver has a decklid that opens separately for engine and trunk

I demand someone produce this....

I was just recently thinking that I might modify an extra deck lid by cutting the trunk area out. That way I could carry big items. The need to carry welding gas tanks was how it got started but it would work for skis, a surfboard, lumber, ect.

Even cooler would be a removable color-matched hard cover that could be stored in the trunk or up front like the sunroof. I'm seeing two "fork" extensions on one end of the trunk cover and a T-handle on the other end that would turn and lock the cover in place.

That idea lead to me to the idea of a Fiero with the trunk and rear bumper cut out and a golf cart "kit" put on.

GM should have done it but suppositly it out performs the Corvette.

Gee wiz golly gosh....You told it like you saw it on the youtube video didn't you skull? Can't say I disagree

Seems like it would make it hard to work on. I usually end up standing in my trunk a lot to work on the engine.

If that was true, GM would DEFINITELY have put it into production on all models .... maybe even done a recall....

Just put in a quick release hinge to attach the trunk lid. I had this idea years ago.
