We have the rear clamshell and the front bonnet struts in stock HERE.
 
Just installed front bonnet struts and work flawlessly. Install top ball joint first then bottom.

These are excellent
 
+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.
 
cooltech. easy to install too

Thanks for the advice . I was able to pick up a set for a decent price. NOS. Thanks
 
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.
