Replacing rear hatch lifts

Those supports can now be bought aftermarket, ready to use, I've heard. 4 yrs ago, I had to use some 'similar' ones from Pepboys, $60 pr., and drill off the brackets, and use bolts to hold them to the new ones.

You can pop loose the interior trim pieces and reach in with a 1/4" dr ratchet and socket to remove the nuts. DON'T drop them !!
