Copper3T Posted April 9, 2011 Share Posted April 9, 2011 (edited) Hi there, I think you will find these fairly easily if you visit your local motor spares suppliers. If you take one of the originals, they will most likely order it for you. The make is STABILUS. 'LIFTOMAT' Part No. 9642BK 030N 264/03 K00 ( these are the numbers printed on the part ) fitted on my Cav. Mk1 sportshatch. There is also a website written on the strut. www.. stabilus.com I have not tried the site but this firm make struts for other makes too. Best of luck.

Best of luck. 9642BK is the STABILUS part number,these are made by SACHS/BOGE,they do make struts for the OEM.(original equipment market)The 030N is the pressure within the unit (30 Newtons)I can still get the tailgate struts brand new for the hatch (not in Stabilus though)if you have no luck or struggle to get them,just give me a kick and i'll sort you out.Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
