Default Seibon carbon hatch?

Hi everyone,

I ruined my oe hatch my installing a fly1 duckbill and drilling holes to mount it. I hate the fitment of the duckbil and would like a new hatch/rear setup.

Has anyone installed a carbon hatch before? It doesn’t seem like switching the hatch itself would be too difficult but I’m worried about swapping the glass over or how that even works.

Could anyone point me to an install guide or any information on how you did it?

Thanks

The glass is the biggest PITA

I would suggest exploring your local junk yards to see if you can find a hatch off a scrapped car

If you're thinking about getting Seibon, I recommend putting your money in a trash can and setting it on fire instead. The fire will at least keep you warm.

Why burn it. I'll take his money. I might even give him a reach around.

I have the seibon hatch. The fitment is near perfect but the only thing I wish was better quality was the inside of it so the plastics all fit like oem I had to pay a shop to transfer the glass and adjust/modify the inside in order for it to look more oem but overall I'm happy with my carbon hatch from seibon.
