AiYiGu Hood Struts for 2015-2017 Hyundai Sonata — 6020 Front Lift Shocks, Left+Right Pair, Direct-Fit OEM Match

AiYiGu 6020 front hood struts are a direct-fit pair designed to replace worn lift supports on 2015–2017 Hyundai Sonata hoods, restoring smooth, controlled opening and secure hold.

When the factory hood shocks on a Sonata begin to sag or fail, raising the hood can become awkward or unsafe. These AiYiGu replacement hood struts match the OEM mounting style and length specifications so you can return your vehicle to dependable, hands-free operation. The kit contains both left and right gas lift arms sized to the factory compressed and extended measurements, and installs without additional bolts or specialty tools.

How do these struts fit my 2015–2017 Hyundai Sonata?

These struts are engineered as a direct replacement for the Sonata model years listed, matching the original equipment mounting points and stroke. They correspond to several OEM part numbers commonly used for front hood supports, ensuring compatibility with standard factory brackets. Measure compressed and extended lengths to confirm fit before installation.

• Compressed length: 9.38 inches; Extended length: 14.28 inches
• Replaces OEM codes such as 6020, PM3570, 81161-3S000DS and equivalents
• Sold as a left + right pair, ready to mount onto factory brackets

What tools and steps are needed to install these hood shocks?

Installation is straightforward and requires no new fasteners. The replacement process uses the same ball-stud connection style as the original supports, so you only need a flathead screwdriver or small pry tool to release the old clips and snap the new struts into place. Always support the hood safely with a prop or helper while swapping the struts.

• No screws or specialty bolts included or required
• Use a flathead screwdriver to pry off the retaining clips
• Install one side at a time while hood is safely supported

Will these struts be durable and reliable for daily use?

AiYiGu hood struts are manufactured to provide consistent gas-assist performance and corrosion-resistant finishes suitable for under-hood exposure. They are tested for smooth extension and compression cycles to deliver predictable lift and hold under typical vehicle loads. AiYiGu also backs the product with a two-year limited warranty against manufacturing defects.

• Durable gas-filled construction for steady lift and support
• Protective finish resists moisture and road debris exposure
• Two-year warranty covering material and workmanship defects

What’s included and what should I check after installation?

The package includes two hood struts — one for the left side and one for the right — with no fastening hardware. After installation, confirm that both struts engage the ball studs fully, the hood opens and closes smoothly, and the hood remains supported at full extension. If any binding, uneven lift, or loose connections are present, re-check clip seating and mount points.

• Package contents: pair of left & right hood struts (no screws)
• Verify full snap-on to ball studs and smooth motion after fitment
• Keep an assistant or temporary prop in place during the swap

Who is this for? These replacement hood shocks are ideal for Hyundai Sonata owners (2015–2017) who want a direct, economical repair that restores safe, effortless hood opening. DIY enthusiasts and independent mechanics will appreciate the bolt-free swap and OEM-length match, while drivers who rely on a secure prop-free hood will value the steady hold and two-year coverage from AiYiGu.
