You can buy these at any time ,I'm just goting to make up 3-4 sets just in case if more people want them. I just wanted to get a intrest check first . Im going to take some pictures of mine today and go from there.
Do people want the same height on there hood ? or just a little taller ?
That will be something i will need to know with your order as well .

Mine didn't require any drilling.
You replaced one bolt on the hood hinge,
and one bolt on the fender mount,
with the ball mount studs.
You then mount the pistons, and insert the retainers.
Takes all of 10 minutes.

I can't get the hood to sit flush after mounting them , I had a great idea of how to do this but im going to need the dimentions of the hydralic cylinders before i can do anything .

roadrunner, iirc u got the ones from the group buy, same as me and elky. they aren't the same. the ones we got require no drilling, made for the mondeo. mine have held up just fine since getting them. elky shaved down the screw heads cuz the struts were hitting the screw a bit. mine do too but very minor. i'm looking to shave down the screw head too.

So wait.......... If I'm gonna buy these, I'll need the hood to go back flush again. And I want the same height as in the redline.com pics. If there is gonna be trouble with them, then I'll just gettem from them. Keep me informed. Thanks

We first want to say thanks to Contour.org - great site! Our RedlineTuning Contour Quick-Lift kits were designed and engineering by us from the ground up to work flawlessly on your Contour vehicles. We are well aware of all other companies and individuals creating kits (or putting together miscellaneous hardware) over the last couple years - some work better than others, but all have some engineering 'flaw' that we have solved. Our customer's can speak loudly to the quality and simplicity that the Quick-Lift kit provides. Quote:
[Contour.org member] - I just got my quick lift kit installed and I couldn't be any happier! Seriously. The kit costs $60 [edit - $49.95] and is worth every penny. Granted you could go out and get your self some gas charged struts from the auto parts store, engineer a few parts, and save a few bucks. However, these kits come with everything and are proven! Something else to consider, these guys have EXCELLENT customer service. Contour kits were just released this week. Go out and get yourself one!!
Our kits work! There aren't any clearance issues with our gas-struts and we have also engineered strut placement, diameter and force into the kit to hold up the hood safely. There is always room for improvement over stock equipment (if available) and we strive to make those improvements.
A 2 year warranty is offered from the date of purchase and this relates to every item shipped in the kit. A great deal of time and testing goes into our products, from the components themselves to the mounting locations and the detailed instruction manuals (all copyright laws apply to our web graphics and written materials). Redline Tuning LLC is our official corporate operating name, created by two automotive engineers who love cars as much as you folks. Give our proven products a try.
Thanks,
Brian & Andreas
