OEM hydraulic hood props

These are made by the same company that supplies Toyota/Subaru, and 90% of the auto industry with their hydraulic dampeners. The ones that come stock for the trunk are made in the same factory I believe(here in Gastonia). I have been running these since mid-winter, and have done very well so far.

Cool. That looks like a not-as-well-engineered Grimmspeed hood damper bracket.

So where do I buy?

As soon as the come up with brackets, they will be sold through Advanced Auto. I guess I need to get on them about it. They already have a lot of kits out for other vehicles, and truck tail gates.
