This complete hood strut kit is made for the Suzuki Vitara (body / chassis code LY) produced 2015+, 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.
Unlike a bare replacement gas strut, this product is supplied as a complete vehicle-specific installation kit with the mounting components and installation guidance required for the listed vehicle application. It brings together the gas struts, vehicle-specific mounting brackets and hardware, and a vehicle-specific installation guide in a single kit, so you have what you need for a do-it-yourself installation.
This kit is listed for the Suzuki Vitara (body / chassis code LY) built in 2015+. Other generations and body codes of the Vitara use different mounting points and need their own kit.
The kit includes the listed gas struts, vehicle-specific mounting components and installation guidance. Exact brackets and fasteners vary by vehicle application; see the included vehicle-specific installation guide for the precise contents for your Suzuki Vitara.
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. Because the kit uses existing factory points, no drilling or body modification is required. Always follow the included vehicle-specific installation guide for the exact mounting locations and sequence for your Suzuki Vitara.
This kit is designed for do-it-yourself installation in up to 30 minutes using the factory mounting points, with no drilling and no body modification. Follow the included vehicle-specific manual for the correct steps for your vehicle.
