My gas struts to hold the tailgate no longer hold open

Anyone replaced these, any known cost for genuine, third party, used?

I assume all gas struts are the same across pre lci and lci; the only different is those who have electric tailgate?

Try these guys, sorted my old X3 struts

Thanks

They don't seem to have the e70 listed

Bit more digging Stabilus makes them

I've also seen febi bilstein do them too. Online place with postage cheapest I've seen is £85 ish; I'll probably go down this route as still a good brand which make oem items

Bmw want £130 for a pair

Breaker ?
