A necessary addition if you...
Having a 100-series Land Cruiser already, I was surprised that the LC250 doesn't come with hood struts. A lot of people think this is an unnecessary feature and can live with the prop rod, but since we actually use this vehicle for off-roading and air up/down when we do, having the hood struts definitely makes life easier.This is a great product and though the instructions aren't great, it's easy to find them via the QR code, this product page, and even just search for "Land Cruiser 2024 hood strut" on Youtube. The mistake I noticed people make is they assume the included bolt goes into the bold on the fender (I made that same mistake). After looking online, I saw that it goes into the cover clip location and it fits perfectly.The installation took all of 15mins to do and now I can open the hood with one hand.

No instructions
Also to add from my previous comments, no instructions. If you look at the pictures and the video, nothing matches as to where or orientation of the mounting fittings. Even the struts are upside down on some of the pictures.

Solid product. I recommend it.
There are plenty of pictures and videos just in the Amazon page by itself. The installation is very easy. I spent about a half hour just because I was going slow. If you had done this before, I think it would be a fifteen minute job.

Simple effective upgrade.
This was a 20 minute installation even without instruction provided. The hood/bonnet on the LC250 is very light weight as it’s made from aluminum. These hood struts are not required but are a nice convenience. I gave it 3 stars for two reasons.1.) No supplied written instructions. I realize things can be found online however instructions would have been convenient.2.) The lower mounting bracket is different than depicted. It could be redesigned to use a factory fender bolt and not loose one of the retaining clips for the engine bay trim/weatherstrip.Other than that they work well.I will be updating the supplied hardware to stainless steel to avoid possible rust/corrosion. I would pat slightly more to have stainless steel hardware supplied.

Fits and works fine! You just have to find the correct instructions.
I installed these in 30 minutes. They work fine. One of the struts were all scratched up and the seller is sending me a new one. (Thank you) Things to consider when installing. 1) Orientation of the bracket that is bolted to the hood. Ball joint pointed downwards 2) Location of the fender bracket. You have to remove the white plastic retainer clip and use that hole, NOT the fender bolt next to it. 3) The kit comes with washers. Don't skip these even if it is difficult to slide under the fender to assemble. 4) The brand new gas struts need to be slowly cycled, so slowly close and open your hood after everything is popped in place. 5) Lastly, for those who are OCD, you may need to grind out some of the plastic fender trim to fit it over the new hood strut brackets.

A must-have accessory!
Easy to install and works great! Needed to cycle the struts after install. Struts are strong and smooth!

Oops
This is junk. Doesn’t fit the 2024-5 Landcruiser.

Did not align with existing holes.
Unfortunately, the lower bracket did not fit my 2025 standard Land Cruiser. It was too small and existing holes did not align. Otherwise, would have worked well I think.
