I was wondering if someone could give me advice. Ever since I installed my 6x9's in my parcel shelf my boot wont close properly, the parcel shelf lowers too quickly because of the weight of the speakers and wedges between the door.
Anyone know a way of resolving this?

Sounds like it may just be postioned wrong. I had 6X9's and my shelf never did this

Yes, but the bungee has worn out on them. Also, it's the bump on the inside of the boot that the shelf clashes with.

Can you not just shorten the string bits ? So as it doesnt go down as far. Dont know if it would work but you know

I have a parcel shelf with 6x9s fitted and it closes fine. Can't see how the fitting of speakers would stop the boot closing.

It's the weight of the speakers. Causes the strings to be really stretched.
