    Dealership wanted over 100 dollars to replace these I fixed this myself for 26 bucks in 5 minutes after watching your video.

    Great video. Succinct and easy to follow. I love it. I liked that I did not have to watch 5 minutes of intro to get the help I needed.
    Thank you.

      How much did u pay for the parts?

    • @VirarAutomotive
      @VirarAutomotive  2 года назад

      I think the parts for this should cost you around $40-$50 for both hood struts

      @@Theresa.Romero Like $22 bucks on amazon. OEM Hyundai prices are ridiculous right now. The aftermarket hood struts and engine splash guards I bought fit just fine.

    After removing the 1st one, I would replace it before moving on...it just seems safer if the prop comes out.

    good vid, used to install new struts on 2016 Hyundai Sonata. Super easy. Ridiculous that stock struts go out that quick, only 50k miles.

    • @VirarAutomotive

      Yeah 50k miles for hood struts to go bad is ridiculous.

    • @VirarAutomotive
      @VirarAutomotive  2 года назад

      Unfortunately not. You need them both to hold the hood up. I have had instances where one strut was good and just one was bad and the hood wouldn't stay in place.

    If you have a steep enough incline to park on the hood may open past 90 degrees and stay up on its own. My terrible driveway is good for something I guess

    Do I need to loosen the clips on the new ones before I replace them?

    • @VirarAutomotive
      @VirarAutomotive  3 года назад +1

      Yes, the clips on the new one needs to be loose before you can insert/install them.

    Can I add struts to a 2012 veloster with just a rod?

    • @VirarAutomotive
      @VirarAutomotive  Год назад

      I doubt it. You'll need the attachments on both ends for the struts. One end on the body and one end on the hood where the strut would attach. If it has it, then yes you may do so

    Also, when they almost hold the hood up...I only replace one! ;^)
