Used them a lot when I had a Gt4

good service and well recommended on most Toyota forums

Thanks, good site, but I dont really fancy dropping £120 on a pair of boot struts this close to xmas.

I've had a pair of generic SGS gas struts supporting the bonnet of my Corolla since April 2009 and not had any problems with them.

Factory fitted,yes.

From memory (when I was a CCUK member and put a veil side spoiler on my gen7) RS Components were the cheapest and most reliable struts.
