Bonnet Hood Damper

Postby roshmx5 » Sun Oct 02, 2016 6:56 pm

Hi just wondering if a 98 hood damper kit would fit on a NB 2002. Only can see 98'hoodmdampers for sale on eBay by Australian seller.
Thanks

Can't see why not, the bonnets guards and front frame are all the same.


Only differences were engine and headlights, neither of which the bonnet stay attaches to..

I think any eBay kit is going to require some degree of creativity, so I'm sure it'd be fine.
The NB8B bonnet and front quarters are identical anyway.

Thanks Guys. I actually fitted one of the same ebayer on my forester. Works well. I might get the 98 one if it doesn't fit will send it back.
