Sub'd.

Saw beemaaz with this on Z bash, looked awesome! Can't wait for payday lol

I swapped the sockets last week and all went well. Pretty slick, affordable, easy mod.

How much for a set shipped to 29680?

EDIT: NVM saw the price a few pages back. Payment sent.

For whatever reason, neither me nor SpecialtyZ was ever able to get these to fit right. They always cause a bulge in my hood. Back to the damn prop-up stick.

received mine today
thanks to Kelly E Fields

i have hood struts on my evo from rexpeed and the bulge is noticeable on the evo
but these hood struts fit great

i followed the instructions on the youtube video
jacked one side up installed the ball post with 1 washer centering the plastic underneath it

used the middle nut to install the hood post- the post facing toward middle of car

lowered car, did the same to other side
lowered car back down

the trickiest part is the hood strut i didn't believe would fit- it seemed too long in length when i attached the front post first, so i was working alone and lifted the hood with my head and physically compressed the strut shorter to push it onto the hood ball post.

that was hard but it worked and after 30 mins had the whole thing completed and no hood bulge.
fyi for others, it does fit great and works fine
maybe the hood strut expands a bit from being noncompressed it really seemed too long but after pushing it really hard to shrink it down it worked and it functions just fine

thanks! :tup:

Here is the ordering information.

So overall it will be 95 shipped to East coast
and dont forget the paypal fees because that would come out of my pocket it you forget and I do accept tips.

To make a payment you can paypal me at kellyefields@yahoo.com
ensure you have your username and correct address so I can mark you as paid.

i did a count of what i have left and i currently have 12 sets left. once these are gone i will not do another batch until I have at least 12 paid orders because i am unable to front the money for the kits due to financial reasons now. so if you want a set with no waiting let me know.

Hard to believe but I just installed mine today - got them just before a big move about 4 years ago and somehow the parts got separated - was finally able to find them all this past weekend - worked out great - the sound they make as the hood goes up is worth the cost alone - thanks!

If anyone is still looking for this - I have a set that is just missing one ball mount... But have both the shocks and hood brackets. A trip to the hardware store and you would be all set.
