I think I got the last set from the previous batch - Kelly has been out of town for a bit.

I have tried to install my hood struts 10 times but they are not even close to working properly. The shock body hits the brake/battery covers with the hood still 6" open and then starts to bend when you close it further. I have changed the height of the posts, including adding many more washers per side and it still doesn't work properly. Its a pretty simple installation and I have everything lined up and tightened but the geometry just isn't working.

Maybe my car is different, I don't know.

Hmmm. That's not good. I have mine at the shop waiting to get installed.

Sorry guys been awol for a while, between work and family issues I have not done much of anything in the past 4 months. I am trying to answer emails and pms so if you need something right away let me know. as of right now I do not have any struts and not sure if i can even get the parts right now. but if there is an interest I will look into it again. again I am sorry but i had to put the family first and get my life straight.

Thanks Kelly for the update...I am still interested and will wait. Due to fact that your struts are the only ones that has no fitment issues. So if you decide to bail altogether due to sourcing issues with mfg. Then no struts will go on my Z as I already know none will fit better than yours.
