Hey everyone, I have renewed my gas struts in the boot and now the boot stays up, boy I miss it hitting my head NOT! My problem now is, when I pop the boot, sometimes it lifts and opens with an unerving clunk, if I'm not quick enough to stop it. Is there a way to stop this, or is there bump stops that can be fitted. I can't see where there would be one. Anybody???

The way they are supposed to work on any Lexus is that the boot pops clear but does not lift, then stays up when lifted by you. This is apparently so rain does not enter or your valuable goods not exposed to the world when you pop the boot from inside the car. So, your struts are over-gassed by Lexus/Toyota standards.
