Hello womachris and welcome to our forum ..

It's my understanding that all the 2013 FR-S hoods weigh about the same.

So, if the hood struts don't work, I figure either you got a batch of bad ones (unlikely) or they aren't the right ones for your car, or they are being installed improperly (most likely).

You may wish to look this over and check your work.

I hope you get em to work.
