Hood struts
Ok, so I need new hood struts. They don't like cool weather. Had to put washer fluid in & the damn hood crashed on top of my head this morning. The thing is heavy! My head still hurts.

So what's best? regular universal auto store ones, dealer ones, or something off of ebay?

I ordered the OEM replacements from Acura.

Quick and easy install, and no more head aches from the hood crashing into your skull.

I've never been able to find them at an auto parts store. Pep Boys, Advance, AutoZone, none of them carry them.

I just bought them at the dealer.
