AiYiGu 4157 Front Hood Struts Shocks for Honda Accord

AiYiGu 4157 front hood struts are a direct-fit pair of gas lift shocks designed to replace the factory hood supports on Honda Accord models from 2003 through 2007.

These replacement hood shocks restore smooth, controlled opening and secure holding of the front hood after OEM struts wear out. They arrive as a left-and-right pair sized to match the original mounts, require no special tools or new fasteners, and include a two-year warranty from AiYiGu. The design focuses on simple installation, reliable damping, and an exact fit with known OEM part numbers.

Will these hood struts fit my Accord 2003–2007?

Yes — the AiYiGu 4157 set is engineered to match the hood support specifications for Honda Accord model years 2003, 2004, 2005, 2006, and 2007. Compatibility is confirmed against common OEM references so you can swap them without modifying mounts.

• Compatible model years: 2003–2007 Honda Accord.
• Replaces OEM and aftermarket numbers: 4157, PM2024, SG326013 and several 74145/74195 variants.
• Sold as a left and right pair to ensure balanced support.

How do I install these hood shocks — do I need screws or special tools?

Installation is straightforward and typically does not require additional screws or complex tools. You only need a flathead screwdriver to release the old brackets; a prop rod or helper should hold the hood during the swap for safety.

• No new fasteners are included or normally required.
• Use a flathead to pry off old brackets and snap the new strut onto existing ball studs.
• Always secure the hood with a prop or assistant before removing supports.

What are the physical dimensions and what do they mean for performance?

The pair is specified by compressed and extended lengths to match the factory stroke and lift. Proper length ensures the hood opens fully and stays firmly supported without overextending or sagging.

• Compressed length: 10.94 inches for compact storage position.
• Extended length: 16.54 inches for full open support.
• Gas-charged damping provides steady, controlled motion and holding force.
