Hold your hood open with smooth, controlled motion using the Stabilus Hood Lift Support 4B-0681VK, a gas-charged lift support with dynamic damping speed control. It's a direct-fit replacement for the 2005-2013 BMW SERIES M 120I, 2005-2012 BMW 120I, 2006-2010 BMW 130I, 2008-2013 BMW 125I, 2008-2012 BMW 128I, 2008-2012 BMW 135I, and 2011 BMW 1 SERIES M — see the Buyer's Guide tab for engine specifics.

This is Stabilus' Lift-O-Mat design, which uses a longitudinal groove (a velocity manifold) pressed into the tube wall so gas flows around the piston with extension speed and damping tuned for this application. The groove narrows toward the end of the stroke for a gentle, controlled stop.

  • Dynamic damping speed control: delivers a fluid opening motion with no bouncing or jerking during cycling.
  • Corrosion resistance: part coatings tested to automotive standards.
  • Engineered around the OE design for proper fit, form, and function.
  • Easy to install and requires no special tools.

For best results, replace lift supports in pairs.
