It looks as though mine are heading to the end of its life...I got a quote from autopartswarehouse.com for $38 each but I want to make sure that is lowest price available and it duplicates the OEM one...also if warranty might cover it?
Actual OEM# is
part# 203 880 00 29 (right)
part# 203 880 04 29 (left)

Their OE part numbers are 203 880 04 29 (LH) and 203 880 00 29 (RH).
autopartwarehouse’s headquarters is in the ghetto not all that far from here. While some members have had successful transactions there, it’s probably prudent to purchase from them only after exercising due diligence.
If they are, in fact, covered by your warranty, they’ll be no worries regardless.
*edit*
see that you already found the PNs. Good luck!

Mine are shot also. When I took my car in for service they were working properly. When I got it back, they did not work at all. Weird. It was an independent mechanic and he says they were like that when he took it in.

I guess I just figured that it would slowly wear out and get harder and harder to keep the hood up. Not just "blow out" and go from working well to not at all overnight.
