Hello people hope you're all on top of the world!
I have a 99 mfl elite saloon with the boot spoiler, the struts are getting lazy and I wondered if anyone knows the part number? and if the slightly heavier elite boot lids have a higher pressure strut?
Thanks
Steve

Same, the boot spoiler is hollow plastic and weighs nothing.

£13 each, not bad. How have you found them? The 3.2's are getting quite weak

Can't remember where mine came from for TBE, but was around £22 delivered for the pair.  They're fine, and a million times better than the originals that came off.

I got some Magneti Marelli ones as well to replace the original - £23 for the Pair from the bay of flea.

Transformed the pair - Boot flies open now

  Yep, that was when I bought them.  Price I see increased a little, but recommended.

Do we know the part no for a marelli boot gas strut for a 2003 2.6 saloon.

Tempted to replace, but as I've lived with them like this for about 5 years not much point in replacing them now.
