Someone over on C4VR is considering a 82 CE and was curious if the rear window hatch makes a loud "bang" when it is released.  Do any of you happen to know the answer?   Let me know and I'll post it over on the C4VR thread.

Thanks!

SOLD - "Betty" - '28 Ford Model A Tudor
SOLD - "BLKBRRD" - '78 Pontiac Trans Am
"BLUBYU" - '04 Coupe

Don't recall my buddy Pete's '82 CE (PJK82CE) making an unusually loud sound.  It certainly wasn't any louder than the pop made when releasing the hatch on "The Beast".

Mine makes a loud pop every time it is opened. It is just the left/right hatch releasing the rear window.
