BMW Hood Lift Support - Stabilus SG402058
FCP Euro $11 each. Works/fits well, but note is very stiff to close. Prob softens with time. But no more hood hitting me in the head when adding oil ;-).
I think I'd rather pay more at the dealer for the correct struts than have the hood rocketed up everytime I open it and need to slam it shut everytime I close it. I can already see how gentle they are with it at the workshops then.
