The gas[or whatever they are]that hold the bonnet open worth buying good used?The ones on mine won't hold the bonnet when it's cold[they seem fine at the present when the weather's warm.Are they the same for F/L as for earlier cars or did they change?
-
Probably the same, although facelift bonnets are heavier, so best to go like for like :-\
-
New ones are cheap enough to make used pointless.
FL are supposed to be stronger for the heavier bonnet, so if you're worried about such things, just buy them.
-
Mine creak as I open the bonnet. Do they need lubricating or replacing?

I'm with Nick W on this. I think I paid £20 a pair for new ones, delivered.

Also same, I bought new front and rear struts as both sets were very fatigued.
Much better now. :)
