Hood shocks- type 44

[Lawrence C Leung]

Fairly simple to do. TPC or Blau okay, but, even FLAP's okay. If you want
to know how to get the struts off, read the instructions given the
generic struts at the FLAPs, price them out, and if TPC or Blau does
better, get the originals there. 

LL - NY (currently with Volvo hood struts I got for $10 the pair. Vendor
has no more)
