Question Trunk Lowering Mechanism

I have a 2003 GS 300. I was pulling an object out of my trunk and accidentally pulled off one of the bars that is part of the trunk lowering mechanism. Does anyone have instructions or a picture (or both) of how to re-install it?

It doesn't seem worth it to take it to a dealer, but I'm baffled how it goes back in. Please help.

Thanks.

Pictures will do you a lot more justice than just explaining.

It'll help others get an idea on what exactly you pulled out etc..

I think he means the torsion bars for the trunk lid. The end with the most bends in it goes closest to the rear bumper and then forms an x under the rear deck lid. Duplicate how the other one is attached.

Thank you. I looked at it again and was able to put it back in place.
