ARANA trunk struts are OEM-fit gas lift supports engineered to replace worn or broken trunk supports on BMW E90 2006–2011 sedans with a quick, durable installation.

These two replacement trunk struts from ARANA are made to match factory fitment and restore smooth, reliable lift and hold performance to the rear trunk lid of BMW 3 Series E90 models (323i, 325i, 328i, 330i, 335d, 335i, M3, xi, xDrive) produced between 2006 and 2011. Built with high-carbon Grade 45 steel, multi-layer chrome plating and wear-resistant hydraulic fluid, they resist corrosion and maintain pressure across wide temperature ranges. The pair ships ready to install and is intended as a direct swap for worn original struts, saving dealer labor and prolonging trunk life.

• Hydraulic oil formulated to resist leaks and pressure loss

Can I install these myself, and what tools do I need?

Yes—installation is straightforward and typically takes five minutes per strut for anyone with basic hand tools. Most replacements require only a flathead screwdriver or small pry tool to release the ball-socket clips and swap the supports, with no specialist equipment or professional labor needed.

• Typical install time: about 5–10 minutes for both struts
• Required tools: screwdriver or small pry tool
• No spring compressors or special tools required
• Instructions: remove old clips, pop off ends, align and snap new struts into place

How do these struts handle different climates?

These ARANA struts are engineered for reliable operation from extreme cold to high heat thanks to their wear-resistant hydraulic fluid and plated steel construction. They minimize leak risk and retain lift force in both subzero and hot environments, making them suitable for year-round use in varied climates.

• Operational range: approximately -40°F to 110°F
• Hydraulic fluid resists viscosity changes and leaks
• Chrome plating slows rust in humid or salty conditions
• Designed for consistent pressure and smooth motion across temperatures
