Hold your trunk lid up and open it with smooth, controlled motion using the Stabilus Trunk Lid Lift Support 5B-249078, a 12.72-inch hydraulically dampened, gas-charged lift support. It installs as a direct-fit replacement for the 1997-1999 Buick Century, 1992-1999 Buick LeSabre, 1997-1999 Buick Regal, and 1999 Buick Riviera. See the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-level fitment.
Part of the Lift-O-Mat by Stabilus family, this unit uses an oil-channeling system and labyrinth piston design, tuned with application-specific oil viscosities, to deliver consistent, controlled damping. If a worn support is letting your trunk lid drift down or feel weak, this replaces it. For balanced operation, Stabilus recommends replacing lift supports in pairs.
