93 Maxima hood supports

Hi,

Where's the best place to buy hood supports, the gas struts, about 12" long, which hold up the hood when open. The ones I have no longer support the hood.

Autozone, 19.99 each (at least for the 95-99s). I would assume they would be similar for your vintage too.

As here no access to cheap struts, and no will to fatten socialist stealerships: I bought one strut which is 2" longer, will go in after 'some' fightin. Now it stays up ok. I dont recommend...

Best cheap advise I've seen so far was a sliced plastic pipe: clip it on the strut when hood open. (remember to take off before closure:)
