I'm so excited over these struts. If I'd known I could get them so cheap and fit them myself so easily (took only a couple of minutes with just a screwdriver) I would have gotten them years ago. Now my boot opens practically all by itself and stays open! I don't have to worry anymore about it falling on the back of my head.
So much thanks to Joshua and Michael for their help and patience with helping me determine the correct struts I needed. Also, postage was cheap and blisteringly fast.
