Default Rusting hatch strut bracket
On my '94, the hatch strut brackets are rusting on the exterior of the car, streaking rust down the glass, and swelling the metal cap up.

What exactly do I need to order to replace this? Does this part have everything I need?

Good luck I couldn't find them
I pulled my cap off sanded the rust then siliconed the cap back on

Thanks for the suggestion - if I can't find a source, I guess I'll have to do that.

Is the hatch striker nut that I see everywhere different from the strut stud nut?
