Restore reliable lift to your Fiat 500 Hatchback’s rear boot lid with this pair of carbon steel gas pressure struts. Engineered as a direct substitute for OE part number 51785412, these replacement units eliminate the common issues of sagging lids, slow opening, or complete failure caused by worn internal springs. With a rated 350N eject force, they provide consistent upward pressure, allowing safe hands-free access when loading groceries or luggage. Constructed from solid carbon steel and finished in a protective black coating, the struts resist road salt, moisture, and temperature fluctuations while maintaining precise tension over daily use.

Usage Tips & Advice

  • Replace both left and right struts at the same time to maintain balanced lift force across the entire boot panel.
  • Install the units when the metal components are cool to room temperature; heat can artificially expand the rod length and complicate bracket alignment.
  • Gently wipe the ball stud connectors with a clean cloth before mounting to remove shipping preservatives, ensuring a secure snap-fit into the factory receptacles.
