What It Helps Solve

  • Dropping hood during service access
  • Uneven or inconsistent hood opening effort

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the vehicle year, model, and left-side application before installation. Match the compressed length, extended length, and 270 N force rating to the original support to ensure proper hood positioning. Inspect the mounting points and plastic socket ends for wear or damage before snapping the support into place.

Quality Assurance

Stabilus is a recognized OE supplier for gas springs and lift supports, and this hood support is built to the listed dimensions and force specification for the intended Mercedes-Benz GLC applications.
