This has been beaten to death but, I come to you again with a similar/same question.
So far I haven't found a thread/topic with recommendations for a reliable kit that works in the long run. Most are either underpowered or they have too much power so they start bending the steel hinges they are attached to. The only person I found, who has them for a longer period, is North Coast Customs guy. However, those struts aren't available any more. Emerald and Black Ice Designs seem to have too much power + Emerald doesn't seem to be reliable shop any more.
So,
1) Is there anyone who has done the mod and have it working for a year or more without causing defects?
2) I found Monroe ML5160 struts for Peugeot 306. The have almost the same length extended (this one is shorter 2mm) and 420N of force compared to 320 the OEM has. Do you think this could fit on Seat balls (Or however you call the spherical things you attach your strut on) ?
Thank you
