I also bought the 150 lbs struts and hardware. Word of caution to you. The struts are about 4.5" longer then OE struts and will extend the hatch much higher! Mine almost goes up to a 90 degree angle with the car. no kidding. It sux because i can barely get it down ( need my tip toes ) and it puts great pressure on the washer nozel. However this can be fixed. Just take the struts to a mahcine shop and have them shortened and re-threaded to OE length.
