Review on 🚗 Maxpow Trunk Lift Supports Shocks Struts for Volkswagen Beetle 1998-2010 with Spoiler 4351 SG201017 by Jeremy Tang

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Big shocks. When installing the trunk support.

2004 Vw Beetle Manual needs improvement, maybe with some photos and big red underlined writing. I later realized that it was a warning hidden among other instructions. I loosened an old shock absorber, thinking that the other old shock absorber would hold the tailgate up. INCORRECT MOVE The tailgate fell off immediately, leaving skin and crushing my right arm as I struggled to pull it between the tailgate and the body. The back door is very heavy. I was glad the tailgate latch didn't snap to the closed position while all of this was going on. I've finished installing the tailgate struts and so far so good. The tailgate now releases instantly from the latch, making boarding very easy.

Pros
  • Excellent overall
Cons
  • Doubtful
