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.
Included:
• Hood Strut Kit
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.
Features:
• Adds convenience when opening hood
• Connects to factory mounting points
• Use with COBB or other aftermarket intakes
