I'm going to replace mine with a permanent fix - the 'hood support bar' - they don't wear out, it it folds out of the way to close the hood, it always works, and it won't squeak like a rat when I open my hood.

I had the strong arm hood struts on my car for 70k miles about 4 years. There finally failing on me again. Just to give you guys an idea of how long they should last.

I agree this was the best "upgrade" I have done so far.
