frunk struts & frunk spring

[m3p_uk]

thinking of changing the frunk struts so it opens automatically and also the frunk spring so less force is needed to close.
Has anyone from the UK managed to find any cheap options with work yet please?

Thanks

I ordered my frunk spring from this US eBay seller, arrived within a week or so and fits perfectly. These are the same model recommended by others on the US side of TMC. A bargain too.

Bought, thanks!

Can anyone recommend the frunk struts then? Ideally not shipped from China.

Thanks. Have bought from Luckeasy before, quality excellent and postage was fast so now bought.

Just doing the frunk for now. Worried that the wife will struggle to pull the boot down with the extra force required of the springs.

Have tried to buy these but it says they don’t ship to my region? Tried a couple of different delivery addresses but get the same.

Surely that link isn't correct is it?

It's a link to the specific listing that was sold. I just copied the item text and searched. Same seller has multiple listings.

Maybe check that the postal address in your AliExpress account is correct? I bought via the app earlier today without issue.

Apologies, this link should be correct for the sellers current listing:

I bought drunk struts and spring from Greendrive and it was simple to install even with no DIY skills. Just Google Greendrive model 3 you'll find it

Cheers just had a look and it seems like a French site?
Prices are also quite high for the spring which I got for £4 for 2 of eBay but is 8 euro for one on there.
Couldn't see the frunk struts though

Just replaced the frunk spring, much less force required to close the frunk now although still feels sturdy.

Ordered these from the US around 6 weeks ago, first package got lost so they sent a replacement, then both packages arrived on the same day.

I now have 3 springs, want to keep one in reserve but if anyone would like one for free, just PM me your name and address and I'll send them on. First 2 PMs get them.
