What's left on the car? There should be ball studs screwed to the frame at the top of the glass and threaded nuts that go through the glass on the other side. If you don't have these you'll need to get them from a dealer. The gas struts themselves you can get off ebay or whatever.

I have a set of good used hatch lift shocks. What exactly are you missing though?

Thanks ....well i have not bought nothing yet but I need the whole thing/everything. lol Struts and what ever parts/hardware I need that goes with it. I have deleted the wiper and old tint and cleaned it all up back their. I tried to look it up on honda dealership site but the diagram sucks and looks old so it did not help much.

One thing to be careful of is not to strip the threads of the nut that goes through the glass and attached to the bottom of the strut. The threads are way weak. I made the mistake of attaching the tops of the struts first and then tried to screw the other side into the glass...the slightest twisting motion and stripped threads.

IIRC the gasket goes on the outside, and the nut poked through and the plastic spacer ring snaps around it on the inside...but I'm going from memory here so I'm not 100%. It should be pretty clear when it goes together.

I don't remember exactly what I did on the install, but if you just keep in mind that the threads are weak and make sure the bolt is lined up straight and don't let it hang or twist while you're screwing it in, you should be fine.

21, 22, 23 are the nut, washer, spacer. Other than that you just need the ball studs, top and bottom.
