For those that are going to say "just put a couple of pennies in the stock springs" I started off with 2 nickles to make it work. Then 3, and now 4. Mine are beyond modifying. I could have ordered a new pair of oem one's but these are the same price as what Z1 had the oem priced at ($55.00 plus shipping). The are very well made and stiff. I haven't installed them yet because my cars in the shop for upgrades but I'll probably go down there tomorrow and quicky throw them on and see how well they work.
Have you removed the rear hatch weight? I removed mine and added in a few pennies to each OEM spring and it opens with no issues at all.
