i had a problem with this . . . you will have your fuel cut of switch ( big and red ) located on the right hand side, just past ur brake fluid res. going to need a deep reach socket here, 10mm i thinkkks, unscrew that, then move it about 2 inches towards u, ull notice a small plate which u can cable tie it to. (moving it will have to feed it under some wires ad cables)
once u have put that in a safe place, undo the 3 bolts either side, adjust the strut, place it on and put the bolts back on... can get pics of locating the switch if needed.
hope this helps.

what ive noticed on mine, after opening and shutting the hood a few times (been fittin new Rad over few days) its started to scratch off some of the paint on the strut  ... nothing too serious, so thinking about sanding it all down and re painting it a different colour!
vtsmad, no offence with the drivin like a cock comment ! sorry chap.

when going hell for leather, you can notice the difference
