Does not look to hard, just buy 2 of those shocks for the trunk and fiddle with them. You will eventually get it to work.

You can get those hood shocks on this site. I know its all in german but you can email them and they will get back to you. I have dealt with them. they are pretty friendly.

Hey, I can read German:

If you open up that page and look in the menu bar on the left, click on "PRODUKTE". Then click on "ACCESSOIRES". Go down about 75-80% of the page and you will see them there. With the current exchange rate, they only cost $39!!!!! I think shipping is where you would get screwed though.

Actually, the currency symbol is in Euros, so I converted it as 1 Dollar = .86 Euros which would be 40 Euros = $46, if it were DM it would be around $20.
