Stabilus Trunk Struts

[a_scobel]

Anybody use these aftermarket trunk struts?? $62.22 for the pair at The Parts Bin. Just wondering if they're worth it; I don't know if they are, since you can pick up some new OEM struts for around $40.

I doubt brand name will matter anymore- everything's going to come from China. For the amount of time you'll continue to have the car, I'd go with the cheapest available. Struts are one of those items that can't reasonably be made cheaply- if you're putting together the hardware to manufacture them, there's no gain in cutting corners on assembly.
