Restore smooth operation to your Citroën C3 hatchback with these pair rear tailgate gas struts designed specifically for Mk1 models produced between 2002 and 2009. When original hydraulic shocks lose pressure, the boot lid becomes heavy, sags under its own weight, or refuses to stay open securely. These aftermarket replacements deliver consistent 420N of eject force to lift and hold the tailgate effortlessly during loading, unloading, or inspection. Machined from durable metal with precision valve tuning, they match OE mounting points for straightforward bolt-on installation without modifications. Replacing worn-out supports prevents premature damage to the rear weather seal and restores confident access every time.

Benefits & Tips

  • Install both units simultaneously to maintain balanced lift force and prevent uneven wear on the rubber bump stops.
  • Apply a light silicone-based lubricant to the mounting pivots after fitting to ensure smooth movement over rough road surfaces.
  • Keep one spare strut in your boot for quick roadside swaps when sudden pressure loss occurs on longer trips.

Warnings & Reminders

Please verify your vehicle model year and existing part numbers before purchasing to ensure correct fitment.

These components should only be handled when the tailgate is fully supported and pressurized parts remain completely cool during installation.
