Volkswagen Hood Strut Kit (Mk8) GTI, Golf R
$ 95.00
Emissions
This part is not an emissions-related part and therefore can be used on Emission Controlled Vehicles.
Description
The COBB Hood Strut Kit returns a level of convenience that Volkswagen omitted from the Mk8 GTI and Golf R. A bespoke hood strut is secured in place between an existing stud on the strut tower and a custom machined ball that attaches to the hood mounting location.
REQUIRED when installing the COBB Redline Intake System on cars that came with a factory hood prop.
Why?
Cost cutting be damned! Volkswagen reverted hood suspension from gas struts to a stone-aged hood prop with the Mk8 GTI and Golf R. Our Hood Strut Kit brings that convenience back to the present day with a bespoke strut and OE quality mounting.
