because the bonnet is very heavy i bought bonnet gas struts i found them in eBay manufactured by a russian company they are perfect they state they are fitted in 15 mins but if you have simple spanners they can be fitted much quicker and are a fuu kit with sturdy brackets regards ps i have fitted many extras and when i find out how to send fotos i will send some Also i have a full workshop manual downloaded on computer, i think it was about 20 euros from eBay as well it is a bit difficult to understand i am lookind for a book like haynes when they come out. regards from spain brian

brianthelian, before you get too involved in sending information on the Bonnet Strut Kit this was covered very deeply when a Group Buy was set up on the Forum. If you look at "For Sale & Wanted" you will find a very comprehensive writeup under "Group Buy QQJ11 (2014) Bonnet / Hood Strut Kit". This is not a critism but I just thought it might save you some time and prevent duplication - Regards Dave ;)

I have just read through the Long Post again and the website of the Russian supplier was stated by nitromax Jun 14 as follows : www.uprory.ru and looking at the website IMHO they look to be the ones used. Also found some Russian ones on eBay (US) and these also look the same - Give them a try Dave ;)

Yes this has been covered before as Dave says, I can understand people trying to be helpful and it is appreciated, but it always a good idea to do a search before starting another thread.
It would also be helpful if forum posters used the easy to set up signature, showing, their car, model ref, year and other info that helps others reply.
