Reply to "Deck lid struts"

As Larry mentioned, most Pantera specialty shops will not sell decklid opening struts of over 110-lb strength, no matter what you've loaded on it. The monococque sheet metal surrounding the hinges WILL wrinkle over time, and fixing those body panels is far beyond almost all owner's capability. Bondo won't work!

Conversely, using a lightweight fiberglas/carbon-fiber/aluminum decklid really requires only one strut to open.
