Tesla Roadster

Trunk Lid Struts

Tesla Roadster โ€” Trunk Lift Supports (Gas Struts)
Direct-fit OE design โ€ข Nitride-plated hardened steel โ€ข Individually tested for force & hold

Restore that factory โ€œpopโ€ and controlled lift of your Roadster trunk. These exact-fit gas struts match the original equipment geometry and force, delivering smooth opening, confident holding, and quiet, repeatable closing. Built to meet or exceed OE quality, each unit is individually tested for performance and reliability.

Why these fail
  • Gas loss over time โ€” Seal wear and temperature cycles reduce internal pressure and holding force.
  • Rod corrosion โ€” Pitted rods damage seals, accelerating leakage and stiction.
  • Incorrect force replacements โ€” Off-spec struts can slam or fail to hold when hot or cold.
Our solution
  • Exact-fit OE design โ€” Guarantees proper geometry, clearance, and opening height.
  • Nitride-plated, hardened steel โ€” Corrosion-resistant rod finish for long seal life.
  • Individually tested โ€” Verified force curve and leak-down before it reaches your car.
