A product you shouldn't need, but do!

 

Our new Golf mk8 Gas Strut conversion kit lets you get rid of the cheap hood prop that the car now comes with. 

 


  • Simple, and fully reversible DIY fit in ten minutes. No cutting or drilling required.

  • After some experimentation, we have produced a gas strut with the correct length and pressure for the Golf 8 hoodet. Lifts and closes with the perfect resistance. 

  • Included is a high-grade stainless steel ball-end bracket, which screws onto the existing hoodet latch bracket stud - no new holes or drilling needed.

  • At last - your hood will open easily and stay open while you're working in the engine bay.
