For Sale pair of rear hatch struts they are new, but not the original equipment.I had a limited amount of these custom manufactured,If you own a CE, I am sure you have experienced trouble with your hatch adjustment (the aluminum alloy hinges stretch causing hatch adjustment to be nesaccery even going as far as having to make the hinge mounting slot longer or relocating the pin in the hinge, so what I did was had these struts made. The original equipment struts can lift approx. 75lbs each (total 150lbs)the hatch glass weighs about 35lbs. MY lifts can lift 50lbs each (total 100lbs) The jury is still out ,but I am hoping this modification will stop the stretching of the hinges. At this lower pressure the hatch still pops open and raises very nicely. I have owned three CE and had to deal with this problem on all of them (Still own one 16,000 org miles) Just remove your old ones and install your new ones same lenght and Your hatch will again raise by itself. $108.00 shipping included I am sure that you will be pleased I have them on my CE they work great. I have sold several sets on ebay under the seller name of corvettepete check my feedback with all satisfied customers Please email with any questions or for pictures at ((((((petevett@hotmail.com )))))))) Money back if not satified Thank you Pete

Does anyone know if there are any of the "Limited" production run of the new and improved hatch struts around? I would love to get my hands on a set of Black ones.

Pete's struts... probably. I've seen them on ebay fairly recently so he probably still has some. I have a set, and while I haven't yet installed them, they seem to be what we need. The Ecklers ones are pretty stiff. There have also been others on ebay for $139 that I wouldn't trust. Try emailing Pete at petevett@hotmail.com

Steve's hatch hinges... maybe. You'll have to contact him and see if he'll make you a set. steve@thecubestudio.com

Good luck!
