Hey Guys

Had a quick look through this post - just a quick question - can you use the struts and bolts from the boot?

Fitted today! Looks sweet but I think I will try and get some newer struts as I have to lift to 45 degrees before it starts to lift on it's own. So glad I have done this now wanted to do it for a while but never found a free way to do it!! Cheers guys
