- Two round hatch-strut bolt caps
- Two hatch-strut escutcheon trims
- Gray molded finish
- Complete four-piece appearance-restoration kit
Finished Hatch-Strut Area
The round caps conceal the hatch-strut bolts while the escutcheons finish the surrounding trim openings. Together they replace pieces commonly lost, cracked or faded during hatch-strut service.
Color Verification
Gray is associated with the listed production range. New molded trim may differ from surrounding original plastic that has changed color with age and sunlight.
Important Application Notes
- Verified Gray color-era application is 1985-1992
- Includes two caps and two escutcheons
- Pieces may be refinished when proper plastic-preparation products are used
- Compare the mounting openings and original color before ordering
- Support the rear hatch safely
- Document the original trim-piece orientation
- Remove remaining caps and escutcheons carefully
- Clean the mounting areas without damaging adjacent panels
- Assign each reproduction piece to its proper location
- Press each piece evenly into position
- Cycle the hatch and verify clearance around both struts
How many trim pieces are included?
Four pieces are supplied: two round bolt caps and two surrounding escutcheon trims.
What does this kit cover?
It finishes the interior mounting areas where the rear hatch struts attach to the body.
Is this the Gray version?
Yes. The parts are molded in Gray for the verified 1985-1992 color-era application.
Will the new color exactly match aged original trim?
Not always. UV exposure, cleaners and normal aging can change the shade of the surrounding factory plastic.
Can the trim be painted?
Yes, when suitable plastic preparation, adhesion promoter and interior coating are used according to their manufacturers’ directions.
