New Hood Strut Kit

The kit does require 1 thru-hole to be drilled per side for the base of each of the struts... painless

would it work if the struts were inverted? I always thought they had to be mounted the opposite way you have them mounted.

Yes the struts do work the same if you invert them. Threading on each end is the same so you can experiment if you want.

Hey Tim, can you make a small revision to your kit? Slot the mount holes on those brackets so they have a bit of adjustment. As mentioned in my write up, if you have to pull your bonnet right up, the measurements you gave make the strut bottom out when you close the bonnet (as the bracket moves with the bonnet)

Cheers
Al

So you want the holes slotted like the slotted holes of the original factory bonnet hinges?

So yeah an oval shape rather than a standard hole?

Post by **Alspos** » Fri Feb 17, 2012 2:48 pm

Yes, so they can be adjusted slightly to allow for whatever.

I think this would be a perfect improvement to make this mod 100% Perfectly complete

You asked for oval mounting holes to provide adjustment during installation - well here you go!!

OK, we sent 3 more kits over last week along with 2 sets of our foglight covers.

Anybody have some pictures to share yet?

We're offering a March sale on the hood strut kit here in the US, so I figured we should extend it to our SQ brothers worldwide:
