i bought mine from dollar, they were about $20 or $25 each. LipShip has em to for same price. After one year, they are bad again. one side does not have enough pressure to hold hatch up. thinking bout coming up w/ disconnect method to let the ram out while hatch shut. i was told by keeping the ram compressed for long periods of time (basically as designed) causes them to fail prematurely.
