I'd like to correct this bit of misinformation that has been going around. The new door struts sold by DMC (Texas) are NOT the incorrect length. Our new struts ($39.95 each) have been remanufactured exclusively for us to the original specification, from the original drawings. The only differences at this point are the black nitride finish on the shafts, and the ends are "screw-on" rather than crimped on. Our previous supplier sent us a couple batches (about 50 or so) of struts with a slightly longer screw-on end that resulted in them not closing completely on certain cars (about 1 in 6 or 8, based on the molds used to make the underbody, near as we can ascertain). We no longer use this supplier for any struts on the car, or any other parts, for that matter. If anyone has any of these longer ends, send me an email and I can replace them for you. The louvre and luggage compartment struts ($19.95 each) are also remanufactured for us, now as well. A complete six-strut set is $139.95, and these are the same ones that will be available from our stockist in the United Kingdom (hopefully in August!).
