Volkswagen Polo Vivo Mk 3 6 7 TSI Rear Gas Shock Left=right is designed to support the bonnet of the Volkswagen Polo Vivo, specifically for the right-hand side at the rear position. This gas shock plays a crucial role in holding the bonnet open smoothly and securely, preventing unexpected closure while accessing the engine bay. It ensures controlled lifting and lowering for ease of use and safety during maintenance or inspection.

This rear gas shock fits within the bonnet shock category and is intended for vehicles from the Mk 3 6 7 TSI range. When comparing with the original part, buyers should verify the part’s location at the rear and side orientation to match the right-hand side requirement. Confirming the old gas shock’s length, connection points, and pressure characteristics can help ensure compatibility. This listing covers the left=right notation, indicating the part’s usage on the right side but may also consider similar fitment as noted.

Gas shocks for bonnets typically come pre-charged with gas that provides consistent lifting resistance. While clips or mounting brackets are not included unless specified, the buyer should prepare to reuse or check existing fittings during installation. This part is categorized as a body panel related component but directly affects bonnet operation and accessibility.

  • Position: Rear (right-hand side)
  • Category: Bonnet Shock
  • Brand group: Volkswagen Polo Vivo Mk 3 6 7 TSI range
