Had just the opposite. We live in a windy area. Was looking at the turn signal and a gust of wind pulled the prop off the hood and it came down on my hand (caught my watch trying to yank out of the way
02:51 to die from corgi cuteness. I really like the ease of install of these. I was afraid to do this because I thought I needed a friend to help align the hood, but this one is just plug and play.
Hi Kevin I just picked up my new 2024 BRZ tS yesterday. Although I knew it didn't have wireless connect for AppleCarplay, I didn't realize it would be such an inconvenience to deal with that wire all the time and find a place to put the phone all wired-up. I assume that Subaru/Toyota think the best place to put the phone is in the armrest cubby, but I plan to keep "stuff" in there. Do you have another alternative place to quickly stash the phone each time you get into the car? My Miata has a little net pouch I stuck to the side of the console but it isn't deep enough to hold a phone. Your thoughts appreciated.
I need this! Its on my wishlist. Also love the Techron products! Ive used their Fuel cleaner in my past vehicles every 10k miles including my current 22 GR86 ( 5k OCI) Thanks for the great content and products brudda
100% agree about the hood struts. Made a video about this 😂 I was like they couldn’t have saved that much money going to the prop vs struts. My 02 Solara has struts.
I don’t even have a GR86 I just like watching your content.
Same! Haha
same, his videos are great.
Same
You are my go to for gr86 related content
Thank you so much for all the love!
Kevin is here thriving while his old workplace hasnt posted a video in months. You go Kevin!!!
Loving the consistent posts!!!!
More to come!!!
Still can’t get over how clean the red and white is
I fall in love with it more and more each time I see it 😍
We don’t need shorter vids Kevin we don’t watch for the car we watch cus your a handsome son of a gun💯
Def adding this to the mod list 😁
TBF I have never ever seen a hood prop fail but I have seen struts fail and results can be real nasty. I feel safer with a hood prop.

absolutely agree these are needed on every GR86 and BRZ zero reason that toyota and subaru are not putting them on the cars from the factory.

One of the first things I ordered.. just waiting for it to come!
You are my go to for Life Advice. On The Go? Get some Kevin Vo.
Hey Kevin, where can i find a carbon strut bar like you have? I have a 2017 brz would that strut brace also fit my model year?
i need one of these cars! this channel has sold me on one since the first vid i watched
Do it!!! You won't be disappointed!!
Are you doing a video on the fender modification? Really curious as I love how it looks!
hey kevin by any chance will you be doing more parts for the 1st gen brz?
Need is a very strong word. Let me watch the video to see if he’s telling the truth
Edit: aight you’ve convinced me
I know these cars suffer from oil starvation during track use, has anyone figured out a fix yet?
It’s not about cost… they were trying to minimize weight as much as possible with the redesign
just installed mine yesterday. the carbon fiber is dope and so were the sour patch kids🤪
I accidentally the wrong hood struts (gen1s) :C so that's gotta wait another week
Me fast forwarding 2 min Tuesday
The "bonus tip" seems to make the struts unnecessary. Just saying.

No Kevin, I need your wheels on my '22 WRB BRZ 😢
Any concern if I have a carbon fiber hood, due to the weight difference?
Funny how released this as the hood struts coming to me lol
What great timing as I just placed my order for the hood struts! Always love your GR86 content!
Awesome! Thank you for the support!
100% agree about the hood struts. Made a video about this 😂 I was like they couldn’t have saved that much money going to the prop vs struts. My 02 Solara has struts.
Just installed them. It was so easy and only took 5 minutes
re: sponsorship
have you been using additives throughout all 300k miles?
Not all of them. More towards the latter half.
We need the Frs ones next, half of them suck
Love how the shop is looking kevin!
Thank you!!
That does look sick 👍👍
What does your wife drive? 330k miles sounds impressive.
2008 Mazda CX-9, been in the fam since it was brand new!
I don’t even have a brzfrsgr86 I have a Honda fit and I just watch your videos
It would be nice if there was an option to have the hood fully open like with the prop rod. Something I’m gonna keep in mind.

Just got mine today!
2:52 a veeeery cute surprise
I think hood struts are a great idea.
Me too!
what kind of dog is that
Dude you are the goat🔥
Definitely a "must buy"! My set is ordered!
Installation was easy and straight forward! Thanks for the wonderful addition!
will they fit on gen 1?
Always appreciate the new products for the car.
what three piece chrome wheels would fit the best for my gr86 ?
bork
Production quality is S-tier as always!
Love the bonus tip on the hood prop. That's awesome!!
Wow amazing tips!
Glad you like them!
Even better would be having a latch/button on them to extend the strut further, allowing the hood to have a second more vertical position
That's an interesting idea for sure!
0:04 RAINBOW BOSS IS SO GOOD!! I ALWAYS HAVE IT!
Any codes for these struts for us up in the Great White North?
You can use the code KV5 😉
@@KevinVocool man. Account set up and order put in. Thanks!
Will you have some for the first gen someday? I wanted Grimmspeed before but they did you dirty so I'm looking for alternate brands 😔👀
Yes! I'm planning to have a full lineup of products for the first Gen as well!
@@KevinVo 🙌
3rd!
Casual W
Yes! Need more of these.
KVo what front strut tower brace is that?
Cusco! It has a built in MCB too!
This isn’t 2 minutes
You're right, in classic Two Minute Tuesday fashion it's over 2 minutes 😅
First!
I got a set of hood struts in my driven.media cart, along with a ton of other stuff. I'm just waiting on my actual BRZ.... Subaru pls 😭
Hope it comes soon!!!
