I installed Blane's struts about a month ago. No problems. My only regret is not purchasing the bright silver body color instead of black, but I ordered the spray touch up paint from Chyrsler and will solve that problem shortly. Very good product.

I've got Blaine's on mine and the girlfriend's PT. Both color-matched. No problems, very good product, but the color is a tiny bit off. Also, both are 04's, and they both needed the washers mentioned in the instructions. I still "giggle like a schoolgirl" each time I open the hood, so I'm not forgetting they are there yet.

Sometimes, if you place the adhesive tape on the hood side too far out towrds the edge of the hood, the strut end cap will rub. This happened on my Keystone, but that was me trying to place the cap as close to the hood edge as I can.
If you are a little more conservative, you can put the top mount in so there is no contact. This is my second set of struts (2 cruisers) and am pleased with them.
