Aftermarket Hatch Struts????

mrmike420 · Post by **mrmike420** » January 18th, 2007, 12:51 pm

Has anyone replaced their factory hatch struts? if so, what brand and where did u purchase them at? I recently bought some Stabilus ones from a website but the mounting brackets were different from that of my originals and would not fit without serious fabrication. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated. thx!

I have an extra one I can sell you. Just one. $20 + shipping? Just one tho. I bought a pair, and only one of my old ones was broken. I cant post in classified. Im too much of a n00b, moderators wont let me.

I think that Greenturd may have some left from the parts sales. PM him to find out if he has any left and what he would charge for them. I'll show him this post too and hopefully he'll reply to you.

Hey rippledabs, you said you have an extra one? Are these aftermarket? If so, what brand? part #?

Hey Yoda, you have a website and a part # for L S technologies? I did an internet search, but all I found was a software company called L S Technologies...

please advise...

I do still have a set laying around, but they are off of the parts cars that Perry Mentioned.

No, they aren't aftermarket. I pick them up off a parts car.

No, they are on my car. I needed a set with a slightly higher rate because of the N-1 style wing I built for the car.
