Description

Illustrative image — kit contents vary by vehicle

The image shows an example of a hood strut kit. The shape and number of struts, brackets and fixings may differ depending on the vehicle model. Please refer to the “What’s included” section for the contents of the kit supplied for your selected vehicle.

This complete hood strut kit is made for the Mazda RX-8 (body / chassis code SE3P) produced 2003-2012, and includes two gas struts along with the vehicle-specific mounting components and installation guidance needed for this application. The gas struts hold the hood open and replace the original manual prop rod, so the hood stays up on its own. Rather than a bare replacement strut, this is a ready-to-install kit matched to your vehicle, designed to fit using the factory mounting points with no drilling and no body modification.

This kit is listed for the Mazda RX-8 (body / chassis code SE3P) built in 2003-2012. Other generations and body codes of the RX-8 use different mounting points and need their own kit.

Confirm the model, production year, generation and body code match your vehicle, and review any fitment notes listed above. If your vehicle has a specific hood type (for example aluminum or steel) or configuration, make sure it matches this listed application before ordering.

What’s included

  • 2 gas struts
  • Vehicle-specific mounting brackets and hardware
  • Vehicle-specific installation guide

Exact brackets and fasteners vary by vehicle application; see the included vehicle-specific installation guide for the precise contents for your Mazda RX-8.

Installation

Installation involves fitting the vehicle-specific mounting brackets to the factory mounting points, attaching the gas struts, and securing the hardware as shown in the included guide. The kit uses the existing factory mounting points, so no drilling or body modification is needed; installation takes up to 30 minutes. Always follow the included vehicle-specific installation guide for the exact mounting locations and sequence for your Mazda RX-8.
