Description
Let's face it, hood props are a pain. They're always in the way when you're working on a car. Our hydraulic lift kits open the hood further and give you full access. Great for show cars or weekend mechanics.
Includes a pair of low power hydraulic struts so that the hood is lifted evenly. A single strut has a tendency to lift one side of the hood slightly when the hood is closed and twist the hood when it's up. Because each strut only has to support half the hood's weight, it can be smaller and more compact.
As used on all of our V8 conversions as well as pretty much every car in the Flyin' Miata fleet. Stylish black with a high-power Flyin' Miata logo on the side. Made by I.L. Motorsports.
You will need to drill and tap (M6x1.0) one hole in the hinge on each side to install - our kit (above in "addons") includes the correct drill bit and tap. Fits all 1990-05 Miatas.

Very good quality
Good shocks and easy install.
I was hesitant to purchase these. It seemed a little expensive just to get the hood prop out of the way. Once I put them on though, I was glad I got them. Working on the car is easier with the hood up higher, no prop to reach around, and better lighting. Love them!
Just get it. Its totally worth it.
Quality on the struts are good and the instructions are clear enough. My only point of note is that these are definitely not ‘low-power’ struts and therefore I can’t really use them with my Toyoshima Craft carbon hood. To close a strut without the hood installed it effectively took putting my body weight into pushing them down, so let this be a warning to anyone trying to install these with a lightweight hood.
All this being said I don’t mind being a mule for it seeing as there aren’t really any resources for this combo online, I was told by someone who had a similar combo that it was fine, but regardless. I’ll just try and find some weaker struts.
