Are these longer than standard high roof struts? Standard ones can be head-bumpingly low for anyone over about 5'8" I believe.

Peter, Those prices may look okay to you, but to me they are outweighed by the postal charges, plus in the UK there will also be import taxes and VAT charges, which make them to expensive. plus Delivery would take a few weeks.
US$36.91 each - plus US$55.81 for post
Plus UK import Tax and service charge for the courier company to collect the import Tax and added VAT.

you are probably right Lewis, was checking postage to my place in Austria.
for me it's cheaper there than to order those from UK. we don't pay duties/tax for items less than 100
anyways I'll measure them up |

| I stand corrected... the 775mm is the original lenght of my struts on the high roof version. the 33,66 inch seems to be the overall lenght including the mounting plate - so no good |
