Good enough
Reviewed in the United States on June 8, 2026Honestly it’s a little complicated to figure out exactly how to use this thing to its full capability and it’s not very sturdy or stable. But it does it’s job, it holds the hood up.

JUST WHAT I NEEDED
Reviewed in the United States on March 16, 2026Old car, trunk lid starting to sag instead of staying up. Easy to adjust for perfect fit, once I figured out which part to twist! It's set just the right length and all I have to do is open the trunk and place this in the corner to hold things up as long as needed. Rubbery grip on each end so no slipping.

W1475 Telescoping Hood Prop Rod (16" to 40")
Reviewed in the United States on October 20, 2022On my last car, the trunk props and the hood props were ridiculous. I replaced the hood prop rods 4 times over the years. Even when they were new, I had to hold the hood up and secure each rod to the stationary knobs on the frame, because once I closed the hood, they would pop back off. Eventually, the plastic piece that snapped onto the knob would break and they had to be replaced. So when I got this car and the hood props were bad, I decided not to deal with them anymore and I got this telescoping pole. Problem solved. It works great, will work forever, from car to car if need be, it cost less than one set of junk hood props from the auto parts store. I don't have to worry about the hood, or the trunk falling on my head ever again.

Sybil5 out of 5 starsCan handle a lot of weight before it would collapse. Great product!
Reviewed in Canada on July 26, 2020I have a clamshell hood and the bumper, which holds the hood, was removed for other work. I used this hood prop rod to hold the hood from a strut below the radiator. There was a lot of weight on it and it did not have any issues. Worked very well!
