    Raise and hold your convertible top cover smoothly with the Stabilus Convertible Top Cover Lift Support (P/N 5B-291757), a hydraulically dampened, gas-charged lift support that measures 12.46 inches. It drops in as a direct-fit replacement for the 1985-1993 Volkswagen Cabriolet — see the "Vehicles it fits" section for full application details.

    Built on Stabilus' Lift-O-Mat platform, this support uses a patented labyrinth piston and an innovative oil-channeling system to deliver the smooth, controlled motion tuned for this application.

    • Patented Labyrinth Piston: provides clog-free, smooth operation during opening and closing.
    • Clog-free design: helps prevent binding caused by contamination.
    • Corrosion resistance: part coatings tested to automotive standards.
    • Easy installation: installs with no special tools, based on the OE design for proper fit, form, and function.

    Signs this support may need replacing include a top cover that drifts down, won't stay raised, or feels weak and uneven when opening. For best results, replace in pairs so both sides provide balanced support.
