Default tonneau cover hatch
I've got a 2004 convertible and the hatch for the top won't stay open when lowering or raising the top. I think there are struts on either side, can they be easily replaced if worn out?
Thanks

If the trunk has not been replaced do them too while there. They will go soon after the others.
