Thank you for taking one for the team with the wasp nests.... Don't wish that on anybody! Been there, done that...not fun....
Both trunk lids, 400 and 300, are 4 hole. That's not saying that the trunk lid had been replaced but, I highly doubt it. The inside of the trunk lid has the same color paint as the body. This leads me to believe that the change that was mentioned earlier in this thread, is an example of the change between the 2 models. I could see where the potential for popping open on the 400 is clearly evident due to the design.
I appreciate the inputs !
