          They are brilliant...I've had them on my tig for the last 3-4 months. The quality is good and they take about 10 minutes to install.

                Do the struts plug in to existing holes or do i need to break out the drill?

                  no the instructions show you use existing hinge bolts and one torx bolt on the inner guard near the head light

                  look at the picture i posted you can see clearly where the strutts are fitted .

                      I ordered these on the 9 May and paid for them I'm still waiting. Has any one else bought from this seller. And not received the strutts?

                        ian, you might want to check with them as I ordered mine around 1 Jun 16 and they arrived yesterday. I bought mine through eBay, and while they provided a tracking number, no tracking data appeared in eBay, but I could track it through my tracking app until it passed from Russian post into another carriers hands.

                          Is the tracking app through ebay or is it separate?
