I have one of his original kits, before he updated that bracket and the dampers. Tell him I'd be in for an "upgrade kit" if he's willing to sell the parts he changed from the original design.

I've asked him to post in this thread.

The opening only opens full. Now what someone can do if they want a kit to only open half way is to use some type of catch that only allows the strut to open so far. But I designed this kit to open the hood the maximum it could open to have room to work.

Pricing the price starts to bottom out at 70 but to get there I would have to have close to 25 confirmed orders to get there.

For those that have the original kit and want the upgraded hinge, which is what I am assuming it what you are after I can make that happen as well.

It was my understanding that the mounting stud on the wheel well (that's what I'm calling it) stays the same, but that you revised the mounting bracket on the hood and also shorted the strut a inch. It's been a while, though.

I'm stoked. I'll have this kit plus my nice red silicone hoses installed come show season.

that is correct. :tup:

Nice! So the brackets and the new struts are what I'd need, I guess. Why did you go with a shorter strut again?

the shorter strut was just a better fit and you do not have to push the hood back as far to get it on. plus the strut has less pressure so you do not have to worry about it flying up to fast and is easier to pull down.

Sounds great. I'm ready for a new set of struts and hood brackets when you are. :tup:

right now I am trying to find a supplier that does not want to charge a arm and a leg for the parts. may take me a couple of days but I am getting there.

I have these on my car and love them.

IN.

I'd be in.

I'm in.

OK so I was able to find a supplier for the parts. My original supplier wanted to much so had to find someone else but I was able to get a better part for around the same price which is good. here are the details It will be about 10 days for me to get these out. I will update the timeline as I get the parts in. it will be first come first serve since I will have limited quanities.
