Hi CB I assume you are looking for Gas Struts to hold open the front and rear clips. These are available in a multitude of sizes and pressures. Can be sourced from either wrecking yards, Ebay, or look up Gas Strut manufacturers. Dimi __________________

Where are you? US? UK? Aus? Online is easy, if you're in the states, I got mine at a Checkers. Any parts store should have a stock of them.
