Review on ๐Ÿ’ช High-Quality Front Hood Struts for Acura TL 2006-2008 - Gas Prop Shocks (2pcs) by Jarod Berthelson

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Inspect the clamps before installing new racks and save the old clamps.

Used it on my 2007 Type-s TL. They fit and work well once installed. BUT: The spring clips that attach the struts to the mounting points on the car were poorly installed when the struts were manufactured. One end of each clip was bent inside the end of the three connectors so the rod could not be attached to the attachment point. I had to pull the clips out with needle nose pliers, of course the clips were damaged. Luckily the old clips were reusable and I was able to use them to connect the stands to the car. A 10 minute job became a 30 minute job. one.

Pros
  • One year trial
Cons
  • New competitors appeared
