Don't bother with 2nd hand ones - they're all failing anyway, and new ones are quite cheap. Here's one example from ebay: http://cgi.ebay.com.au/w...wItem&item=350424813979
I just bought some VT ones off this seller (for a friend) and they were excellent. I'd have no hesitation in buying these ones from him if my VS needed new ones.

I ordered another pair for a VX boot for a work colleague on Thursday, and they turned up yesterday - fitted them today. Great service from them considering the public holidays & the silly season. In case you haven't sussed it out - when you look at the end of the strut, there's a metal clip. In the plastic behind that clip is a slot about 1/4" wide - that's to slide a screwdriver down to lever up the clip a little, to allow you to slip the socket end of the strut off the fixed pivot ball. The new ones can be "banged on" just by centreing them over the ball & giving them a small thump with the palm of your hand - no need to lift the clip up when fitting them.

I bought bonnet and boot struts off this seller and got a discount for 4 struts.
He sent the wrong boot struts but immediately sent me the right ones when I told him the were 50mm too long.
Vandals and graffiti "artists" do everyone a favour and target parking meters and fixed speed cameras only. |
