    Best prices are from companies that sell struts based on measurement and amount of resistance you want. People have posted links to those companies on here in the past and you end up pay less than 1/3rd the price compared to ones that are specific to make-model-year of a vehicle.

    Having the hatch smack me in the face would be a welcomed change!
    Thank you for the info.

    I’ve just ordered a pair from Struts Depot online. A snack in the face would be welcome for me too. At the moment I have to lift the boot up myself, with increasing force as the weeks go on. Yes, it holds itself up once fully open, but doesn’t lift itself up by any means. I’m guessing the struts are OEM from factory in 2007…
