If you have purchased version 1 of the 2015+ RedLine Tuning hood struts, they are offering upgraded brackets for a discounted price. To get to the info, you can skip ahead in the video to the 2:50 mark. Or you can watch the whole thing and listen to me talk about Evo_Rob. :cheers:

Forgot to mention that this video is also useful for anyone thinking of purchasing the RedLine hood struts. You'll want to ensure that you are getting the version 2's.

Glad I could help you out man. The v2 brackets are way better :)
They should be in tomorrow. I'll try to get them on, assuming this "blizzard" doesn't put a stop to my plans.

Lol. It's already melting away. I'm hoping my steeda shifter shows up tomorrow and I'll be knocking that out. Maybe my whipple stuff will show up this coming week too.

Nice! I can't wait to see that Whipple installed.

goodbye tires! :) Have fun with that, and thanks guys for communicating the Redline strut update. Still considering this upgrade, but not settled on it (don't go to too many Cars & Coffee, though my 11yo has been begging for it...)

I'd highly recommend it if you're constantly under the hood. And not that I have kids, but I wouldn't miss out on too many bonding events. Cars are always a good idea :p

I second that. I still don't know why Ford doesn't have hood struts installed from factory. Definitely an upgrade worth doing though. And Cars & Coffee is awesome! I think the next one I go to will be in Richmond later this month.

Quick tip, your passenger side bracket may not line up with the windshield wiper line clip. It'll depend on the hood alignment. You can try to realign the hood, or do what I did: enlarge the hole with the step drill bit that redline includes with their kits.

Thanks redline for updating the bracket and offering it to existing customers at a discount! That's the way customer service should be all the time.

Yeah, I'm glad. I thought I did get the V2, but nope. I don't mind spending 4.95 on the upgrade for piece of mind.

What's the difference in brackets and why should I want the V2? Also how to get the discount? (Didn't check the video, as I don't have the patience for it)

From what I understand,the new bracket takes the bounce out of the hood.
