Default Trunk boot lid helpers

Has any xjs owners retro fitted gas Struts to the boot lid.? Do the ball pins bolt through the trim panels or are the panels cut around the strut. Any pictures would be appreciated

rgp,

I don't know if the pre-facelift that you have is substantially different, but here's a pic of a facelift boot strut attachment point.

Thanks for that Paul
That's a bracket attached to the reinforcement pressing. Interesting.

rgp,

It's an integral part of the pressing. See this pic.
