Gas struts for the boot

[buzzthedog]

The boot lid on my 350z has collapsed on me a couple of times, especially in cold weather. I guess I need new struts. The existing struts are Nissan supply with no code number. Can anyone supply these? They look easy to replace. The car is 2004 by the way.

Thanks

or if you want standard, get some SGS ones.

Are the usual ones people go for.

If you are feeling brave, you can try removing the boot weight first. This might help short term.....but for long run definitely get a replacement.

Easier and cheaper than replacing struts. Can remove the rear wiper and motor too while you're at it for extra weight saving and cosmetic enhancement.

Thanks for the replies. I think I will go for sgs replacements - an affordable solution!

I have used SGS for a few things, found them to be really good on customer service.

I have some standard ones that have plenty of life in them if you want an even cheaper alternative.....I only replaced mine after fitting the nismo spoiler.
