Sorry, I was being dim as per, and didn't see the extra fittings that they had supplied which then made sense. Front struts fitted frunk plastic trimmed to allow struts to sit unhindered

I've ordered mine for the front bonnet, not going to arrive anytime before end of March or April from Aliexpress, if I knew this before I would of ordered them at the same time as the rear ones, oh well

I got the rears first, really to see if they were worth getting before going for the full set. I think they'll arrive a bit sooner than they estimate, mine did anyway👍.

same here, I wanted to be sure if they were an improvement or not,  for sure they are, for the cost it's well worth the mod

It's great to be able to just lift the lid and it stays up, can't wait to be doing the front ones

I agree, I'm not one to do alot of big mods but they are easy to fit and a nice upgrade I think. I found on the front, the bracket attached to the bonnet has the ball screwed into the side. The hex on that ball joint slightly fouled when tightening down, so I put a washer between the bracket and the lid as a small spacer. Just something to watch for.
