3rd door support gas springs (stay) - worn out

If the only problem with them is that they don't hold the hatch up (drops
on your head when you are getting something out of the back), then you
might be able to get them re-gassed. There are businesses that do that
by putting the whole strut into a steel tube, and pressurising the tube with
nitrogen. This forces gas into the strut past the seal, and two minutes later
you have a working strut Smile

Could be worth asking around... ?
