I decided I wanted to try a set of hood struts to lift the hood and hold it up without using the hood rod. I looked around a chose the Redline Elite in stainless steel. They make a set specifically for the Speed3 since the hood is heavier than the regular 3's. They give you stronger struts (A8's).
I was a bit skeptical that they would work, but they made me a believer. They do work, and work very well so far. I just put them on today.
The directions were very good, easy to understand---even for me. I had no problems and they went on with no issues. I did however, borrow an angled drill from my neighbor to drill the fender holes. It made the job easier since it was a tight space to work in.
All in all I'd recommend these to anyone that wants to add a little bling to the engine bay.
