Bootlid struts.

Post by Rafolian »

Just received my new bootlid struts, and 3 minutes later fitted! What a difference, bargain.
E-Bayuk, Magneti Marelli brand from Latvia to Spain, £20.50 plus £1.00 p+p.
Didn't realise how bad the originals were until I changed them ( one was completely shot!).
Result!!

I think that's where I got mine from. You just have to be careful not to get smacked in the face if you're used to the old, knackered ones!

They just push straight on, few seconds each one. (There is a spring loaded retaining clip already attached, wee buns!!)
