Vepagoo Front Hood Struts for 2012–2017 Toyota Camry &

Vepagoo front hood struts are direct-fit replacement gas lift supports engineered to restore smooth, reliable hood opening and secure hold for 2012–2017 Toyota Camry and 2013–2018 Toyota Avalon sedans.

If your Camry or Avalon hood no longer stays up or feels heavy to lift, these Vepagoo hood lift supports are a budget-friendly OEM-style alternative. They match common Toyota part numbers (including 96757, 5344006091, 53450-06080/06081) and are designed to recreate the factory motion and hold. The set is sold for the front hood and comes with installation guidance so you can replace worn or leaking struts with minimal tools.

How do these hood struts improve hood operation?

Worn gas struts lose pressure over time, causing the hood to sag or require two hands to lift. Vepagoo struts restore the assisted lift action so the hood opens smoothly and stays open without a prop rod. They re-establish the original travel path and damping to prevent sudden closures.

• Replace weakened struts to regain steady, one-person opening.
• Reduce the risk of accidental hood drops during maintenance.
• Provide consistent resistance across the full lift range for safer access.

How difficult is installation and what tools do I need?

Installation is intentionally simple and can usually be completed in about 10 minutes with one person. Vepagoo includes step-by-step instructions; you’ll typically need only a flathead screwdriver to pop the old clips and secure the new strut ends. For safety, support the hood with a prop or a helper while changing one strut at a time.
