Thats right, you can lose 5 lbs and keep that big front trunk lid up all night long with the new Original CAMP 914 front trunk shox kit.
Easy to install. Remove both trunk springs,remove one bolt and install bracket, then install lower pivot ball, install shox and VOILA you are done. Kit contains shox for both right and left sides.
$40.00 mailed to your door in USA.
Foreign shpiments inquire.

Craig, how does it feel when closing? Do you have to push hard all the way?

Sean No these are for keeping it up, when closing gravity takes over, you don not have to push down other than to get it to latch.
PS, Did you get my PM
on the logo to Jeroen??

hey craig, looks like a great product. I plan to buy a kit, but how do I get the springs out??? I am either afraid that it will go flying through the dash, or it will put a hole in ME! How do I remove them without killing myself?? If I get them off succefully, you can count on me buying a set!

I put these on my 914 a coupla years ago and I went out the other day to check some 914 parts in the front trunk and they have already given up. My 86 and 88 fieros gas springs still work. Am I the only one this has happened too?
