Stabilus Back Glass Lift Support P/N:4B-164230
Open and hold the rear glass with a smooth, controlled motion using the Stabilus Back Glass Lift Support 4B-8278XS, a gas-charged lift support with dynamic damping speed control. It drops in as a direct-fit replacement for the 2003-2008 Toyota Matrix — see the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-level fitment. This 17.44-inch Lift-O-Mat by Stabilus uses a longitudinal groove, known as a velocity manifold, pressed into the tube wall so gas flows around the piston with extension speed and damping tuned for this application.
For best results, replace lift supports in pairs. Worn units that no longer hold the glass up or feel weak and slow may be candidates for replacement.

This part cross-references / interchanges with the following part numbers:
What vehicle does this lift support fit?
It is a direct-fit replacement for the 2003-2008 Toyota Matrix. Check the Buyer's Guide tab to confirm the correct application for your vehicle.
What does dynamic damping speed control do?
A velocity groove pressed into the tube wall controls gas flow around the piston, creating a fluid opening motion with no bouncing or jerking and a gentle, controlled stop.
Should I replace both lift supports at once?
For best results, replace them in pairs. This helps both sides hold and move the glass evenly.
How long is this lift support?
It measures 17.44 inches, based on the OE design to help ensure proper fit, form, and function.
What are signs my lift support needs replacing?
Common signs are a support that no longer holds the glass open or feels weak and slow when the glass is raised. Diagnose the cause before replacing.
