Keep your trunk lid rising smoothly and staying up with the Stabilus Trunk Lid Lift Support 6B-140088, a gas-charged lift support with dynamic damping speed control. It drops in as a direct-fit replacement for the 2003 Volkswagen Beetle, measuring 7.93 inches and based on the OE design for proper fit, form, and function. This is a Lift-O-Mat unit by Stabilus, using a longitudinal groove (velocity manifold) pressed into the tube wall so gas flows around the piston with extension speed and damping engineered for this specific application.

  • Dynamic damping speed control: creates a fluid opening motion with no bouncing or jerking during cycling.
  • Controlled stop: the groove profile narrows toward the end of the stroke for a gentle, controlled finish with minimal impact.
  • Corrosion-tested coatings: part coatings are tested to automotive standards for corrosion resistance.
  • Easy installation: installs with no special tools; for best results, replace in pairs.

If a worn or drained lift support is why your trunk lid drifts down or opens slowly, this replaces it.
