Title: WANTED: Bonnet strut
Post by: al brown on 07 April 2012, 11:59:11
As per the title, I require a pair of bonnet struts as one of mine is shot. I think they are all the same but just in case it is for a pre facelift 3.0 elite.
Many thanks,   Al

Not that it makes any difference in the real world, but the facelift struts are a little stronger ........ facelift bonnets are apparently a little heavier due to the attched grille.  :y I hve a pair of later struts on my pre facelift & you can feel the difference ...... or is that cos my old struts were Donalded Ducked?  ::) ;D

Suspect its because the old struts are knacked Andy B.

I've had to put my old struts back on, as the replacements only lasted about 4 days before completely letting go (as in, even off the car, they don't extend on their own) :o
