I purchased a couple and only need one....from an Alfa 166 (boot not hatch)

If you are not in a hurry I can pop down with it - or can put in post

Cheapskate me, I bought a pair of kitchen cabinet ones for £6.90 the pair including fixings and postage, experimented with position to give lift, and not obstruct roof panel stowage. Not quite enough to swing open but pops up and a finger can lift it to open and stays open even in a breeze.

Hi All.
Kitchen ones might not be enough, I have another 4 kgs at the back of mine so I may need a slight stronger one to lift it right up + I have to mount the amp for the radio and don't have any room left in the boot.
