Avant owners, how do you close your hatch?

[audibmi]

I've been closing my hatch by pressing on the license plate, to avoid touching the paint. Scanning through clairparts, I stumbled upon this device.trunk handle Clicky

Would this trunk handle put too much stress on the two screw holes? Anything product similar to this that you've encountered?

[foofighter]

that's pretty cool i just usually push on the license plate or put the bottom of my fist on the 4 rings to close it

[audidood]

$19 for that??? just buy a piece of aluminum, cut it, bend it, drill it, and bolt it.

[audibmi]

Yeah, it does seem pricey for a cheesy piece of metal. Foo's idea of the four rings is an alternative to pushing the license plate though

I always grab the inside handles and pull it down until gravity takes over and slam shuts it itself.
