I really like how the little bit of weight reduction made the hatch feel opening and closing myself. Notice it as well?

Also, my 2 clips broke when I took them off. I replaced them with these: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B008427CZ2/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o07_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
I'd like to color match eventually, but at least it's on tighter. Without them, there isn't too much difference. Never fell off. Maybe it rattled, but I never noticed.

They are good for a lot of replacements throughout the car.
Also, do you have any input on how i can make the writeup better? I will be doing a writeup for antenna delete and for replacing one of the motor mounts, maybe a few others.
