Also, if some one has a picture of their stock trunk or carbon trunk with everything mounted.. please post a good pic of it for me.. or pictures.. and Please let me know if I need to hook up these plugs that are not connected. thanks!!

I had a carbon boot on my Evo 6 & they didn't have the "holder" inside them like the standard one has for all the wires etc

Not sure if you can buy self adhesive clips from a hardware store to hold them up.

I bought velcro strips for my trunk release handle and my c/f lid had all the holes to put the stock wire clips in.

I had a friend that used speaker wire concealer raceway to run his trunk cables.

They usually have an adhesive backing and can be painted black so it can blend in with the inside of a CF trunk.

You should be able to buy a tube like version at your local Lowes.

Yes, Please help .... Please take pictures for me .. I have heard that people with Seibon trunks get it to look really clean without using anything to glue it down ..

Here's what a stock one looks like. Looks like you'll have to make some holes to make it look good, or get some stick on Zip Ties at home depot or something.

Hope this helps
