MALC-AS24 Posted November 11, 2020 Share Posted November 11, 2020 New A1 ( 2019 ) does not have bonnet struts fitted as standard - is there an Audi retro fit kit or an after market kit available ? Presumably drilling would be involved - but struts make bonnet lifting a lot easier and safer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Q Posted November 16, 2020 Share Posted November 16, 2020 There are aftermarket kits. My brother fitted some to his car (non Audi) and work well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi Steve - Any idea the name of the strut kit manufacturers / suppliers. Some years ago I fitted struts from an MG website to my MG ZR160 - no drilling required as the brackets used existing fixings, but can't see any suitable fixings / holes on my new Audi A1.

I believe it might have been an eBay supplier. Sure my brother paid around £25. But they're still working now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
