I notice that you don’t have to cut the weatherstripping next to the struts. I’ve seen the other vendors instructions telling you to cut. I’m guessing no fitment issues then?
Truckondo it didn’t seem necessary and doesn’t seem to be rubbing at all from what I can tell so far. Moving the washer line was the only real thing I had to do for “fitment” per the instructions.
Ian G Ent. Wish my install went as easy as yours. Got my hood struts last Friday. Decided to install today. Unfortunately the hood brackets don’t line up with the hood bolts. Now I’m unsure if the struts are correct. I’m waiting to hear back from Steeda.
Truckondo I sent them a Facebook message about a question I had and they replied the next business day so I would expect a reply soon. Hopefully they get this figured out for you.
Ian G Ent. Turns out that someone packed the Fusion hood brackets by mistake. They are shipping out the correct brackets to me very soon. Hope they get here by the weekend but shipping from Florida to California is a long way. Good customer service though.
Thanks for the video man, mine came with no instructions to speak of so this was helpful figuring out which pieces went where.
thx for the vid
I also find it strange that Ford didn't consider how many times you'll have to be opening the hood of that car.... 😉😉😉😂🤣

Truckondo glad to hear they are taking care of you!
