Just installed front bonnet struts and work flawlessly. Install top ball joint first then bottom.

+1. I’ve had them for 2 years and they haven’t lost their spring. Way better than OE.

I bought the rear clamshell supports from Cool Tech and I definitely can recommend.

Now after going through a few front supports from OEM, I think I need the fronts from Cool Tech. They were fine and then recently died again.

Good luck. The NOS are known to be weak right out of the package.

I’ll be surprised if they last a year.

OK, GTPOPPY... we get that you want to be on the GT Forum solely to promote your horn buttons. Frankly, I'm a little surprised that DBK or Chip hasn't banned you. In my opinion, they should.

As Chip pointed out in a previous thread, the function of an airbag is to quite literally to EXPLODE - and everything needs to be carefully engineered so that this EXPLOSION doesn't do more harm than good. By now, I think the OEM's have gotten that science pretty well dialed in. Until peeps start trying to stick on a projectile that, by design, is going to be f'g LAUNCHED by the airbag. NOT A GOOD IDEA, PERIOD.
