I bought a set of those from LMF for my boot when my irmscher ones wore out. They never worked properly from the start and I used to have to help the boot up by hand. They look nice though.

Are you meant to fit Irmscher ones to the boot when you have a spolier fitted? Since fitting mine, the boot is quite a bit heavier, and the lifters in now do seem to struggle quite a bit

JohnnyN

These INXX ones are sold on the fact that they can lift the boot with a spoiler but they didn't do it very well. Any Vauxhall that has a boot spoiler would have come with the irmscher uprated lifters as standard so it might be worth investing in some Matt. Don't go for cheap as it'll cost twice as much in the long run.

Matt

Cheers John, think I'll have a look for some after I've paid for the RARB

Jamee

i got mine from ebay from supernovas, £14 all in, next delivery Matt.
The boot ones are a tad more, £20..here's some for you.

The weight of a boot is shocking with no lifter its amazing these things can lift them esp with a spoiler on them. Id get genuine one if I were you Matt as johnny says might save money in the long run just think how long your's have lasted so far?

Jamee

agrre with Neil, deffo get the irmscher ones for the boot, not sure on the price of them, but not much i would have thought.
