Trunk/Boot Struts
May sound like a silly question but what are these struts meant to do?
When I unlock the boot nothing apparent happens at all, I'm assuming it should at least jump up a little bit.
When it's open the struts seem to hold it open fine.
I'm going home next week so if i need new parts I'll get them ordered up and delivered ahead of time.

Well they finally gave up the ghost and the lid cracked me on the head last week in Vegas.
I got new ones from here High Quality Automotive | Marine | Industrial Lift Supports (Also got a set for the S Type bonnet)
It now jumps up about 1/2-1" when I unlock it after I lift about 6-8" it lifts itself up and self closes from around the same distance.
So I'm a happy bunny.
