Hydraulic hood lift for S130

Hello Zdriver,

Does anyone know of the person or company that makes a kit to convert from the tension spring to hydraulic lift for the hood. My Z doesn't have the tension spring to help raise the hood. I remember the conversion kit, but can't remember who sold it.

These hoods are light as heck man. If you want the new rods just hit up Zcarsource.com.
