Frunk Lift Struts (Auto-Open Kit)
Retailer links:
Pneumatic struts that pop the frunk open and hold it up, no more juggling groceries while you lift the hood. Bolt-on install using factory points.
Buying Guide
Fit notes: A bolt-on pair sized for the Model 3 and Model Y frunk. Both cars use compatible factory mounting points, so the same gas-strut kit serves either. Confirm whether your car already has any factory strut provision, since some later builds differ, and note this is a two-strut set, one per side.
Install and what to know: Medium difficulty: it bolts to existing factory points with hand tools, but you're working in a tight engine-bay opening and the struts are under spring tension, so seating the ball studs takes patience. Before buying, know that pneumatic struts soften in cold weather and can hold the frunk less firmly over a few winters; they assist opening but won't power-close it. Check that the hood still latches flush after install.
