I think it would work a lot better than the stock design which never seemed to do anything for me-except break. I have not noticed any difference whatsoever between when this thing was installed, and now that it isn't. I am just worried that it may be leading to the hinges being overstressed, eventually causing them to wear out. I saw one of the gas piston units at Autozone that seemed like it might be small enough to use. Any thoughts?
