look a bit flimsy to me look at the standard strut size the larger end im in process of sorting quality uprated tailgate struts out at the moment in black and polished stainless not saying the e bay ones are not any good but the original ones are a larger diamiter for a reason as theres a lot of weight there and when you add a bike rack etc a lot of weight to and money there
Factory kombi van struts are 970N force I think. They wouldn't hold my tailgate + bike rack up so I upgraded to 1250N struts (off a camper the dealer said) and now its hard to close so I would recommend the mid range strut which are 1130N. The 1080N model also appears to be a factory part
