    Subwoofer compartment lid flying off at high speeds with the top down fix?

    My sub-woofer compartment lid keeps flying off at high speeds with the top down. I replaced the two white body clips in the front but the air gets under the back and lifts it up and off. There are two plastic clips in the rear that are damaged along with damaged plastic where they insert into. Is there a fix for this? I thought I would ask before rigging a fix.

    Rigging a fix with some velcro may be the way to go.

    Depending on the damage, plastic welding could possibly fix the broken parts.

    Thanks delvec. I think I will try the velcro method 1st before trying more elaborate fixes. I do have a plastic welder that I will try next.
