the ones that i have seen up close, you just remove two of the trunk lid bolts..which allows it to swivel like that.

heres one I found while searching. Its for a cavi but give you a general idea.

How To Do It
Step One
Once you pop your trunk, there are brackets that hold your trunk lid to the car. On these brackets are 4 screws, 2 on the left & 2 on the right. Have your second person help you hold the trunk as you remove the screws, and completely remove the deck lid.
Step Two
Take the new hinge & put the hinge part on top of the trunk bracket and mark the hole (that's on the hinge) on the BACK side of the bracket. If you got a question let me know on that step. I could only get 1 screw there but you may be able to get both screws there.
Step Three
DONT DRILL THE HOLE ALL THE WAY THROUGH. JUST ENOUGH TIL YOU GET A LITTLE HOLE ON THE FRONT SIDE OF THE BRACKET (front side being where you put the factory screws in & the back side being the flat part that goes against your trunk lid).
Step Four
Once you get the screws that came w/ the hinges in the BACK side off the bracket on both sides, get your second person to help you put the trunk lid back on the brackets and hold the trunk while you get the FACTORY screws back in the front side of the brackets.
Step Five
Take the hinge & press it against the inside trunk lid & mark the holes from the hinge onto the inside trunk lid. Drill your holes (AGAIN NOT ALL THE WAY THROUGH) and screw in the hinge to the inside trunk lid.
Step Six
Now to get it to work you just take those 4 factory trunk screws out and it will fold in half. Just fold your trunk to where it looks level and put the wood (or whatever you used) on the ledge at the bottom of the back window, & the other end between the trunk lock & the filler piece on the inside of the trunk. You may need to extend some of the wires going to your brake lights in order for the trunk to flip up all the way.
Step Seven
Your trunk should now flip level when you want it to, and function normally the rest of the time
