Emerald Struts FAQ's
Will they make my boot hard to close?
Define "Hard to close"? The law of physics suggests that for something to come up with force, its naturally going to make it stiffer to go down, however - closing the boot is still as easy as it was before!
Do I need any special tools for installation?
No special tools are required. Our kit includes everything you need for installation, and basic household tools like a flat bladed tool may be needed.

How often should I check my Emerald Struts for wear and tear?
We recommend checking your struts every six months for any signs of wear and tear to ensure they remain in optimal working condition.
What should I do if my struts start making noise?

Installing your Emerald Struts
Step 1: Remove OEM Strut
Support your tailgate open or ask someone to hold it for you while you remove your OEM gas struts. Use a flat-bladed tool to remove the metal clips, then pull the strut ball sockets away from the car.
Step 2: Clean & Grease
Remove any dirt or debris from your ball studs and apply lithium grease from our store. This will help ensure the smooth opening of the boot.
Step 3: Install New Struts
Remove the four metal securing pins from our Emerald Struts. Insert one ball socket onto your car's ball stud until you hear a click. Repeat this for all four struts, then reinsert the metal securing pins you removed earlier.
Step 4: Close Boot & Open
You can now close the tailgate. There will be added pressure, which is normal. Once closed, hold down or click the unlock button twice on your key fob, and the boot will open automatically.
