Just fitted some of these struts, excellent quality, easy fit and will come in handy Im sure, admittedly it is stiffer on closing, but that is to be expected, especially when new. If youre feeling really flush, they now do an electric option.
Not a recommended mod then Paul?These struts were a big thing back in the 90s and 2000s when me and my mates were modifying Escorts, Golfs and the like. Lost count of the number of bent hinges and damaged boots.
As I say, me (and several of my mates) got burned years ago.Not a recommended mod then Paul?
Makes laugh watching people stand their waiting for the powered boots open in car parks, by which time I have opened, loaded closed and getting ready to leave.... whilst they are standing there watching them close again, then checking it...The power lift option is really nice, but £500???
To be fair that includes fitting. I don't think that's unreasonable as they also add a switch to your bootThe power lift option is really nice, but £500???
I have to say, the Wifes Kuga has the power tailgate, but it has the kicker option, where you wave your foot under the rear bumper to open and close it, excellent when your hands are full, especially good for girls who dont want to touch the car when its dirty.Makes laugh watching people stand their waiting for the powered boots open in car parks, by which time I have opened, loaded closed and getting ready to leave.... whilst they are standing there watching them close again, then checking it...
My parents Kuga has this also, I was ******* myself watching them both dance around trying to find the 'sweet spot' for it to open up.... doesn't help their balance is shocking, but made my day!I have to say, the Wifes Kuga has the power tailgate, but it has the kicker option, where you wave your foot under the rear bumper to open and close it, excellent when your hands are full, especially good for girls who dont want to touch the car when its dirty.
