Default gas struts for hood
Does anyone sell gas strut replacements to raise the hood on a 1984 C4 that can be easily fitted?

Most auto parts here in the US sell them. Don't really need them if the big long one down the left side frame rail is ok. Lot of people just remove them when they are bad. [8D]

Thanks. The engine bay clamshell hood on the '84 has a mechanical one on the right side only. Thought the newer C4s have double gas
struts that I'd like to retrofit to make it easier to raise.
