The penny trick is used if your hatch is not "popping" enough to clear the latch when you try an open it. Typically when you have a heavy spoiler, even the penny trick won't do too much.
If you have a problem with your hatch not staying open, that's where heavy-duty hatch struts will help you out. Like Mark said, I'm currently holding a sale of these (see my sig).

well the 2 pennies fixed my "popping" problem. First try now, which is great. Hopefully I dont have to worry too much about getting a dent or something like some people where mentioning.
