Trunk Torsion adjustment fail and ruined underwear

Was hoping to firm up the trunk torsion. Trunk would not stay up. One side was in closest hole, other side was in far hole. So, I crawled in, closed the trunk started prying with huge screwdriver. I keep hearing loud clunks. So I get a piece of plywood and cover my face and arm with it, go for one last pry to get it out of the hole, and BAAAMMM. Broke right off. I saw sparks as it happened. So now I have a broken torsion bar. Also I have a ruined pair of boxers. And if my trunk wouldnt stay open before, now it is about 50lbs heavier.

I guess now onto the Gas strut mod I am seeing around here.
Can I get an AMEN.!
