Fitment Notes

  • Always match OEM reference number(s) and vehicle details before ordering. Verify by chassis / platform code, model generation, and year range.
  • Fitment list covers BMW 3 Series E36 sedan, Compact, Convertible, and Touring body styles. European-only CNG variants have been excluded from the South African market fitment.
  • Engine specification does not affect bonnet fitment on the E36 chassis. Confirmation is by model, body style, chassis code, and production year range.

Installation / Use / Maintenance Tips

  • Compare the new gaslift strut to the removed unit before installation to confirm length, stroke, end-fitting type, and mounting orientation match.
  • Inspect the bonnet hinges, catch, and mounting points, and replace both gaslift struts together as a pair where two are fitted.
  • Support the bonnet manually during removal and installation - do not rely on a single remaining strut while the other is removed.
  • After installation, verify the bonnet holds open at full travel without drift and closes and latches cleanly.

Durable and well fitting
Durable and well fitting. I drive a Honda Accord 2014 and when the under engine covers started falling off I used these to replace the ones that came off. They work well and the prying tool made replacing the retainers easier.
