Part #:30-8288

Price: $134.87

Includes:

(1) Left (Driver's) Side Standard Duty Deck Lid Support

Description:
A failing deck lid support can be quite the inconvenience. These shocks are designed to hold the rear tailgate in the fully open position while you access your cargo inside the deck area. As they wear from age and use, the supports can struggle to keep the deck lid open. One side may sag a little at first, or the entire deck may slowly droop down. Eventually, this situation can lead to injury as the shocks wear even more, ranging from a banged head from an unexpectedly low hanging tailgate to much more significant hand, head, back, or any other body part struck by a deck lid suddenly collapsing. Fortunately, replacement is simple and should only take a few minutes. This genuine, original equipment (OEM) tailgate shock fits on the left (Driver's) side of coupe model rear deck lids. For models not currently equipped with any type of rear deck lid spoiler.

Note:
If your deck lid does not "pop" up when using the opener, these supports are most likely not the source of the issue. 350Z and newer models use "spring bumpers" to help cushion the tailgate on closing and provide that initial opening. These are also prone to wear over time; see 34-1162 in Related Items for replacements.

Deck Lid Spoiler Note:
This factory original replacement deck support is not intended for use on models that have a rear spoiler installed. They will physically fit on all 370Z coupe models, and can be used on models where an original spoiler has been removed; however, the tailgate will not be properly supported with the extra weight of a spoiler. This may lead to premature wear or failure; see Related Items for Medium and Heavy Duty options for your Z.
