How simple is the installation — do I need special tools?

Installation is fast and straightforward: most owners can complete the swap in about five minutes per side using common hand tools. The replacement uses the same ball-stud end fittings as the original struts, so no welding or modifications are required.

• Procedure: depress clip, pull the old strut off, push new strut onto the ball stud
• Estimated time: under 10 minutes for the pair with basic DIY skill
• No drilling, cutting, or specialty equipment needed

What materials and durability can I expect from these replacements?

Vepagoo builds these hood supports from premium carbon steel with factory-grade seals and gas charge, matching the mechanical specs of original equipment. That yields consistent lift performance, corrosion resistance, and long life under typical driving conditions.

• Construction: heavy-gauge carbon steel body and quality end fittings
• Performance: designed to match OEM lift force for stable hood support
• Protection: durable finish to resist road and weather exposure
• Support: backed by a 12-month replacement warranty

How do I choose the correct part if my OEM number is listed?

If you find an OEM number in your owner materials or on the old strut, match it to one of the Vepagoo-listed references to ensure exact interchangeability. When in doubt, compare fitment to the model and year ranges provided.

• Common OEM references included for quick cross-checking
• Use vehicle trim and year when OEM number is unavailable
• Contact Vepagoo support for confirmation if you have uncertainty
