ARANA Rear Hatch Struts OEM Fit for Subaru Forester 2014-2018, 2 Pcs

Installation was very easy with the provided instructions. Works great, no issues at all. Not original brand, but not able to tell the difference. Fit perfectly without having to do any workaround or get additional parts. Only needed a screw driver and pliers. Took about 15 mins because I should have read the instructions first. Very well built, sturdy as heck. Great price compared to what so called name brand replacement cost. Closes and opens without any problems. After first installation, I thought it would not close due to intense pressure. But after a few hand closes, it worked perfectly. Definitely get some replacement grease, not oil. Pros - installation was easy with only 2 tools needed - works like original lifts - great quality with less cost - fit perfectly without any additional parts needed - very sturdy and strong feeling - very easy to use - closes door completely Cons - might have to manually push close a few times to lessen pressure

I got tired of the hood slowly falling on my head while checking the oil and doing routine maintenance on my Santa Fe, so I finally ordered these replacements. I am so glad I did (I've had it for almost a year now, and it's still perfect.) The installation was incredibly straightforward. It literally took me less than 10 minutes to pop the old ones off and snap these new ones into place with just a flathead screwdriver. They fit the Santa Fe perfectly and are surprisingly strong when you pop the hood now, it lifts up smoothly on its own and stays firmly in place. If you do any of your own car maintenance. Great quality for the price!!!!

These lift supports transformed how my hood opens. Installation was incredibly straightforward, taking only a few minutes with basic tools. They hold the heavy hood securely in place without any sagging. The quality feels robust and durable, matching OEM standards perfectly. Overall, an excellent and affordable upgrade for anyone needing reliable hood support. I checked the prices with other online company $40-$50. Amazon was by far the best deal. Perfect size and fit less than 10 minutes to install. Durable material and appearance,

They fit perfect and are definitely strong shocks. Seem to be well built and installed in under 5 minutes. Definitely recommend.

Very happy with this purchase! Took less than 10 mins to install, and my hatch works better than when I bought the vehicle. Easy to install, sturdy product and a great price. Works amazing on 2018 crosstrek. Hatch stays up, and closes softly. Definitely recommend.

Easy to install ! These work a little too good! It was a little hard to close the hatch after install, had to use 2 hands to do it.. I guess I was used to the old worn ones and they have softened a little over the past couple of months.. I would purchase again!

Fits 2006 Chevy Trailblazer. Very easy to install, even a 55 yr. old woman can do it!

I bought a set of these struts for my 2014 Subaru WRX hatchback. They work fine, and installation was not too hard. BUT they are about 3/4" short of extending to the fullest extent allowed by the hatch hinges. And so, at full opening supported by the struts, the bottom edge of the hatch is lower than it would be if the struts extended further by maybe couple of inches or a bit more. (This is an estimate, since I couldn't actually extend past the strut's full length to see.) They certainly are OK. And lift to their limit. And a LOT better than hitting my head on the hatch due to weak struts. But would be just right if they kept pushing up to the max allowed by the hinges.

At first, I was a little uneasy trying this job on my own, but I watched a YouTube video and it was very easy. One video suggested using a 6-foot step ladder to keep the rear hatch up when I took off the old strut. With the ladder, was able to do this job in about 10 minutes or less. Without the ladder or something of that nature to support the rear hatch, it would be a 2 man job.

Facile a poser, je suis vraiment satisfaite. Je vous les recommande 👍🏼

Easy to install, high quality, nice packaging.

A perfect fit for my hardtop rear window for a 2008 Jeep JKU. My original window supports (#6602) were sagging and i almost bump my head everytime i walked to the cargo area. These new shocks improved the headspace by 6" ! So lots of clearance now. It only took a few minutes to replace them. Am very happy.

These are a perfect match for my 2010 Santa Fe. They are easy to install in minutes. Work great and lift the hatch effortlessly. Good purchase!
