    haha i got a stick to hold my boot up =P

    not too sure if the ke70 ones are the same, maybe measure them up and i can check if they are the same size as the 86 ones... or hopefully someone on here knows the answer

    I just took an old one into supercheap, and grabbed something similar off the shelve. They were a couple of cms shorter that the factory ones, but it doesn't bother me. Taller people might have a problem!

    Let me know if you want the exact part number.

    i need new ones too, mine hole the boot open for about 10 seconds, varies on temperature too i've found, hotter days make them hold for longer
