      can one of you who has done this do me a huge favor??? measure the whole shock (extended) then measure the inside part (chrome) because I'm going to buy some new and I want a rough idea which one to get

      they aren't that much at teh auto store but there are like 50 to choose from! haha thanks

            Just some info since I see a few people using other dampers - 04-07 V6 Accord OEM bonnet struts, dont work they foul no matter how they are mounted.
            The main reason I can see is because the length of the body (The black peice, not the total length) is shorter than the ones here that have been used here.

              neat trick - I've always hated those goofy hood props on any car.

                This is exaCLTY why I'm asking the people who have done it to measure each section for us. Shocks vary in lbs, total length, and the length of each section.

                    the bolt on other side of the damper is 12mm,but our fender bolt is 10mm.my question is,can i drill and tap the hole to 12mm?

                            it didn't touch the hood,but it lifted up about 2-3mm,not obvious...

                              x2...I don't know anything about thread sizes, so I couldn't start to even guess which size it is.

                                PR, how long are the props?

                                Im having a hard time finding the Legend props and might just pick them up at a parts store but i dont know what size to get.
