NO DRILLING or RIVETING REQUIRED like other kits! ALL Brackets are STAINLESS STEEL and made in the USA!

This kit fits the 00-05 Neon and 03-05 Neon SRT-4.

  • Open your hood with one hand!
  • Keep your hood open without the floppy OEM hood prop rod!
  • Bolt on! Installs in 15 minutes or less with no drilling, no cutting!
  • This MPx hood lift kit uses all stainless steel brackets, and hydraulic struts that quickly open your hood and it slows down near the full open position. It stays open securely in high winds so you never have to worry about wind making the hood come loose and falling on you while your working.

    Again, there is no drilling at all, it uses existing holes in your fender, and the hinge hole.

    We have two kits - one for use with the heavier OEM steel hood, and another for use with lighter carbon fiber and fiberglass hoods. We offer two different kits, because this is not a one size fits all ordeal. If you use a hood strut designed for the steel hood with a carbon fiber hood it will flex a lot, and make lots of creaking noises as the CF hoods flex more. So, we have a lighter set of struts for the CF and Fiberglass hoods.

    NOTE: We are using American made, Stainless steel brackets that wont rust. Our brackets are cut, bent and welded ALL IN THE USA. These brackets have guides to ensure perfect alignment of the brackets and operation of the struts. Other poorly made kits with painted steel brackets will end up rusting and because they use universal brackets, the brackets are likely to move around with the heavy duty struts pushing open the heavy steel hood. Our stainless brackets have welded guides to keep them from moving. If you are looking at a inferior kit with painted metal brackets with no stops or guides, those will twist over time, and then have improper alignment and cause problems with opening/closing of the hood.

    .

    Please watch our video below for demonstration.

    WARNING: Not all hood strut kits are the same. We see a lot of kits that require you to drill into your hood and fenders to rivet the kits permanently to your car. What if you ever have a problem with the kit, or want to remove it? Its not going to be easy when the parts are riveted to the car and you have permanently drilled holes into your car! Lastly, a lot of these other kits on the market, are not using proper hood strut pressures and we have seen peoples hoods flex, and even carbon fiber hoods crack due to wrong pressure struts being used. We have two pressures for both steel and carbon fiber that we have tested extensively on our own SRT-4's!

    Note: Individual replacement struts for this kit are also available using the drop down menus below.

      Will these damage my cbd hood over time with the stress points/mounting points?

        We use a soft hood strut, that makes it easy to close, but yet opens completely. Because it pushes against the hinge and not the hood (in addition to softer hood strut), you will not be stressing your carbon fiber hood. Just use both hands to gently close the hood, and you'll be perfect!

      If I was to order a kit for my steel hood, how much would it be to buy a set of struts without mounts for my CF hood as well?

        We can sell individual struts for about $20 each. Please call us to discuss and or to order separate struts like this.

      For a Steel hood does it require both struts or can one be enough?

        This kit is designed to use both hood struts. It will not be strong enough if you only have one strut in place to lift the hood.

        Select either steel or carbon fiber hood in the pull down menu near the pricing, and then you'll have options for this kit with black or polished struts, and the option to buy single replacement struts.
