Well theres actually two rods that flex to hold it up.

But why not get those props they use on hatchbacks and custom fit them to yours.I have a new set out in the garage ive yet to put on mine.

They have so many names it's ridiculous. Spend alittle more money for the good ones rather than the cheapy ones, after you open it 20 times your trunk will be hitting you in the head again for not buying the good ones.
