    Keep the trunk lid opening smoothly and holding steady with the Stabilus Trunk Lid Lift Support 6B-896528, a gas-charged lift support with dynamic speed control. It installs as a direct-fit replacement for the 2004-2008 Volkswagen Beetle. This is Stabilus' Lift-O-Mat design, which 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 profile narrows gradually toward the end of the stroke for a gentle, controlled stop with minimal impact.

    • Dynamic damping speed control: creates a fluid opening motion with no bouncing or jerking during cycling.
    • Corrosion-tested coatings: part coatings are tested to automotive standards for corrosion resistance.
    • Based on the OE design: intended to provide proper fit, form, and function.
    • Easy installation: requires no special tools; for best results, replace in pairs.

    Signs this lift support may need replacing include a trunk lid that drifts down, opens slowly, or won't stay up on its own.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    What vehicle does this lift support fit?

    It is a direct-fit replacement for the 2004-2008 Volkswagen Beetle. Check the "Vehicles it fits" section to confirm it matches your specific vehicle.

    What does this part do?

    It is a gas-charged trunk lid lift support that raises the trunk lid and holds it open, using dynamic damping for a smooth, controlled opening motion.

    Should I replace both lift supports at once?

    Stabilus recommends replacing in pairs for best results, since a matched set gives even, balanced support. This listing is for one unit.

    How does the dynamic damping work?

    A longitudinal groove pressed into the tube wall lets gas flow around the piston, and the groove narrows toward the end of the stroke for a gentle, controlled stop.

    What are signs this lift support is failing?

    Common signs include a trunk lid that drifts down, opens slowly or weakly, or will not stay up on its own. Diagnose the cause before replacing.
