Hold your hood open smoothly and securely with the Stabilus Hood Lift Support 5B-9842NC (also written 5B9842NC). This 12.44-inch gas-charged lift support fits the 2001-2006 BMW M3 (see the Buyer's Guide tab for engine details), providing the controlled extension that supports and holds the raised hood in place.

Built around Stabilus Lift-O-Mat technology, it uses a longitudinal groove — a velocity manifold pressed into the tube wall — that lets gas flow around the piston, with extension speed and damping engineered for this specific application. The groove narrows toward the end of the stroke for a gentle, controlled stop.

  • Dynamic damping speed control: creates a fluid opening motion with no bouncing or jerking during cycling.
  • Gas-charged Lift-O-Mat design: custom groove geometry delivers refined, consistent motion control.
  • Corrosion resistance: part coatings tested to automotive standards.
  • Based on the OE design: intended to match proper fit, form and function; easy to install with no special tools.

For best results, replace lift supports in pairs so both sides hold the hood evenly.
