Default hood in hatch?

i head you can fit a hood in the hatch...is that true? if so how? i need to pick up a hood about three hours away and dont have another vehicle to put it in so can you actually fit a hood in the back?...if not would it be bad to drive there with no hood on at all and just put that hood on for the way home?

Honestly I dont think it can be done... I havent tried it but I Just got my hood in and I dont think its possible to put it in the back... A short drive with no hood is ok but a long one I am not sure about... Make sure you have nice weather that day if you are gonna do it, just be ready to clean out the bugs afterwords.

you'l be fine driving with no hood... people do it all the time... why not just bolt the hood to the car when you get there?
