Trunk supports

[Guest Jeffn]

Anyone know the company that sells our gas suports. Bought a trunk support and lost their contact. They sent a support for god knows what-doesn't fit anything on the TC,

I've found a source for the gas-filled struts for the TC: Mr. Lou's Stuff at www.autopartsbylou.com They list the TC specifically on their site, prices are reasonable, and service very quick. I ordered two hood struts which came in a couple days, are OEM (Sachs), and fit perfectly. Just ordered the storage compartment and tonneau struts as well. </div></div>

Last month I bought some gas springs (Lift Supports) from this guy and they bent my left trunk lid hinge. He sends 314 Newton Force springs where 250 Newton force Springs belong.

I've now replaced all my struts with new ones from Lou's. No problems, and good speedy service.

However, at least one other forum member has had a bad experience there.
