Ha ha, join the club!
There\'s nothing like being hit on the back of the head by the hatch to spur you into action where those bloody struts are concerned.

This is the thread I started last time I got hit on the head. I haven\'t got round to having mine done yet but I will do.

If the price is right, I\'d take a few struts up there. They aren\'t too far away from me and will regass while you wait.

[syebba]

If price ok,i\'ll get mine done,they hold tailgate up,but drop down about a quarter of the way,they\'ll give up eventually.

pretty cheap at twice the price £10.50 for regas per strut plus postage and packaging etc so not too bad
will be sending mine up there asap

[syebba]

Is that SGS charging £10.50 per strut?or another company?
