Over time, repeated opening and closing of the trunk can fatigue the thin sheet metal surrounding the two latch mounting bolts, leading to cracks, loose latch alignment, or further damage to the trunk lid.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOur E36 Trunk Latch Reinforcement Plate is designed to strengthen this weak point before damage starts, or help prevent existing cracks from worsening. Designed to work with both E36 coupes and sedans, and precision-cut from stainless steel, this reinforcement plate installs directly behind the factory trunk latch using the OEM mounting hardware for a clean, simple installation with no welding required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhether you're maintaining a clean street car or reinforcing a track or drift build, this is an easy preventative upgrade that helps preserve the integrity of your trunk lid.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDesign: \u003c\/strong\u003eReinforces the factory E36 trunk latch mounting area, helps prevent cracking and metal fatigue around latch mounting bolts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial: \u003c\/strong\u003ePrecision Cut Stainless Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Raw Stainless Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInstall:\u003c\/strong\u003e Direct bolt-on installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMounting:\u003c\/strong\u003e Mounts to the trunk using factory trunk latch mounting screws\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFeature:\u003c\/strong\u003e No welding or permanent modification required\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003eFitment\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFits:\u003c\/strong\u003e all BMW E36 Coupe models\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFits: \u003c\/strong\u003eall BMW E36 Sedan models\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003eIncluded\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e(1) E36 Trunk Latch Reinforcement Plate\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eDamaged OEM Trunk Latch -\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0283\/8868\/7971\/files\/e36-trunk-latch-reinforcement-plate-zr-garagistic-k1085-20.png?v=1785976278\u0026amp;width=700\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0283\/8868\/7971\/files\/e36-trunk-latch-reinforcement-plate-zr-garagistic-k1085-34.png?v=1785976278\u0026amp;width=700\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0283\/8868\/7971\/files\/e36-trunk-latch-reinforcement-plate-zr-garagistic-k1085-32.png?v=1785976278\u0026amp;width=700\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Garagistic","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50347441914070,"sku":"shj1788236721515","price":7.68,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0756\/7687\/7014\/files\/e36-trunk-latch-reinforcement-plate_1.png?v=1788236729","url":"https:\/\/buyallwearus.shop\/products\/e36-trunk-latch-reinforcement-plate","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
