The 2012 - 2021 Tesla Model S Left or Right Hood Gas Strut Support 1062634 - 00 - A is an OEM iron support designed to support the hood of Tesla Model S, ensuring it can be opened and closed smoothly and safely. The following is a detailed introduction:
- Compatibility1: According to the information from Ingenext, this gas strut support is suitable for Tesla Model S models from February 2012 to March 2016 and from April 2016 to January 2021.
- Part Number and Type3: The part number is 1062634 - 00 - A, which is an original equipment manufacturer (OEM) part. It is a gas strut support, which is usually used for the left or right side of the hood, providing stable support for the hood.
- Material8: As an “OEM iron support”, it is made of iron. Iron materials have high strength, which can ensure that the support can bear the weight of the hood and maintain stability during use, and is not easy to be deformed by external forces.
- Function6: The main function of this support is to provide necessary support and buffer for the hood of Tesla Model S. It can make the opening and closing of the hood easier and safer, and prevent the hood from sudden falling, which poses a threat to the safety of users. At the same time, it can also keep the hood in the open state, facilitating users to check or maintain the components in the engine compartment.
- Installation4: When installing, you need to use a trim tool to release the clips at the top and bottom of the strut, and then remove the old strut. After cleaning the installation position, lubricate the two pivot points of the new strut, and then fix the rod - end of the strut to the vehicle body, and the body - end to the hood, and make sure the clips are in place.
