I wanted to get a nice set of hood struts. I need help from you guys who have done it, please. Where to get them, good price, nice appearance, easy install ( no new mounting holes) using existing brackets and holes? Any and all help will be greatly appreciated? I have heard of REDLINE, how do you guys recommend?

 

Love my redlines.....JDM has the same ones with a different logo. I do not mind using rivets either. The other kit uses excisting bolts but I do not like the looks as much. With redlines you just lift the hood up like a foot and it will take it the rest of the way.

 

MRT is having a website sale on them right now I believe! around $90 I have had them for years and love them! 10 minute install! www.mrt-direct.com

 

Yup after looking at the others and quality i went with MRT also. They work like a charm

 

are the MRT's and CDC the same strut basically...I see the MRT's on the MRT site are black powder coated for $109....but I see the CDC on brenspeed for 90....any diff....thx

 

Think they are basically the same, I know MRT just had there Grand opening so they are still having the sale on there site.

 

MRT struts work the same way. Does the redline kit come with a rivet gun?

 

I did the CDC and they were simple and I like the billet look a lot. Took about 20 minutes by myself, but I did tweak the hood position a little to make it more flush than the factory

 

I have the SS Redline struts. Don't let the rivit thing scare you away - easy install. Couldn't be happier.

 

rivet gun sold seperately
