Default Hatch Window struts needed??

I am in need of new window struts for the rear hatch window in my 86 with rear defrost. Where can I get them, and how much? They will cost me $40 at GM. Where can I find them cheaper? Thanks!
:cheers:

That sounds like a good price; they are $49 at Contemporary Corvette, my favorite Vette vendor.

There used to be an add in corvette auto trader that sells them for $25.00.............I bought some several years ago..................I've also seen struts at checker auto that look long enough............the defrost comes off the strut and goes on the new one.
