Upgrade Tesla Frunk Lift Supports

Many Tesla owners like the frunk to open up on its own. Installing hood struts 6304 ( Strut 4 6304 21217) allows the frunk to open up independently. This part number is meant for Jeep Grand Cherokee, but many Tesla owners use it successfully for the hood.

One thing to remember is that if you install upgraded status that opens the frunk automatically, closing the hood will require a little more force. Also, the hood may buckle up slightly, but it will be unnoticeable. Enjoy your Tesla frunk opening without having to touch or lift it. Evannex is an independent company that also makes lift supports for Tesla, which allows the frunk and trunk to open automatically.
