I've only seen them made for the Bug/1302 (which you also have Steve). German Car Company had them, not sure where to get them now.

I've never seen those gas hood struts for a 1303, just Standard and 1302, so it would be nice if they do indeed make them.

Hi
The reason I want to get them is that the stock spring sometimes goes a bit wayward and this pops the circlip off the hinge and makes the whole thing fall down and crash into the body, not a good look. I have the formula but Ive been too lazy to work it out. I need to measure the weight of a stock hood and then do some measurments of the pivot points. I will make it my mission before I go away on hols. Steve

Struts
Anyone get anywhere with this yet?
I'm looking into fitting a pair to the family 1303LS Cab.... I'd be really good if there was a normal car which you could get these for... like a Ford Escort or somthing... MG
