Help I have a Erde 122 trailer and I have just bought a 2nd hand ABS hard top.

Unfortunately the hard top did not come with a gas strut. I know I can get them for around £50 but I also know that if I had the size then I could get one for half that. The fully extended length of the gas struts measured from the centre of one end fitting to the centre of the other.
- The length of the thin part of the gas struts (not including the end fitting).
- The type and size of the end fittings (e.g. Eyelet - 8mm hole).
- A photo of any numbers that are written on the gas struts.

Is anyone kind enough to provide the following info then it would be appreciated

Hi I found an old thread regarding this, however, the page refered to on SGS website no longer exists, maybe give them a call and see if they can help.
The old thread is:

I found that link too and contacted them about it but unfortunately as it was only a link it didn’t show what was required

I asked them if they could cross reference from the picture below without success
