C43 trunk spring broke need a replacement?
Hello everyone, several months ago I was closing my trunk and heard a loud bang in the trunk. I got scared and though something blew up in there. Then realized that it was only the spring. I took the spring out and found out that the hook on the spring that connects to the trunk broke. So now I was wondering if anyone had a part number for the spring? And how much they go for?

I appreciate it man. Not bad $30 bucks for both. Is it easy to install them? Are there instruction guides?

are you sure the hook on the spring broke and not the mounting point inside the trunk?

Yah I double checked and saw the spring hook broken. The trunk mount seemed in good condition.
