Trunk Struts - Any Info?

phelan · 09-23-2009, 11:57 PM

Hey guys,

I'm looking at the Stabilus brand trunk struts (which work quite well on this car, thank goodness), and I'm wondering if anybody has a data sheet for it. I'm thinking that if carbon fiber parts start coming out, the amount of force the struts are putting out will be too much for a lightweight hatch, so I'm looking to build / find one that is a little less powerful. Anybody have ideas?

It's not up on their web yet, and they haven't responded to my request for info either

I've seen this stabilus trunk strut over the dealer but can't seem to find reviews or I'm just looking at the wrong page?Anyway, all I know is that stabilus is a good brand so perhaps, the trunk strut works well also.
