Anybody ever try to remove or tighten the large locknut inside the trunk lid that holds the lock cylinder on these cars. That funny shaped hole they got doesn't give ya room for a regular wrench and the nut is way down in there. So I manufactured my own wrench that will reach down in there with a handle that sticks out so you can grab on to it outside the hole.
Everytime I pass by that toolbox and see that tool in there it always made me wonder how other people were re-installing their trunk locks. Bet they don't have a tool like I do ! Hehe.
