it was already done when I got the car but it runs great! im not the greatest 6spd driver in the world (only had a manual for like 3 weeks driving time now) so ive had my few "mistakes" (VROOOOOOOOOOOM ****!!) and it runs like a rock. thanks for the e-brake solution though... i feel like a dumbass!!

With the car running I have to open my door to pop the hatch, even with the e-brake up.
