Default Bonnet gas struts

Hi guys

I need a pair of good bonnet struts that lift the bonnet up. My bonnet decides it wants to drop every time. Many thanks.

When I ordered my bonnet & boot struts from SGS, I just used the marque & model finder rather than measuring and all that. Both sets fitted a treat.

Obviously if you're an MG owner, like I am, don't be spooked by the lack of the MG logo on their site.


I have just ordered a set for my bonnet, and a set for my FL2 thanks for the links.

I will see how they perform as of yet not read any bad reviews about them from SGS

Then maybe renew the rear struts on both cars.

I fitted new struts all round my 75 from SGS some 4 years ago and they are fine.

Default Gas struts

Hi Ravinder,

I have a set of "brand New unused Struts". They have the correct nm pressure indication.

£20 plus P&P.

Regards

Mike
