Tesla S/X/3/Y: frunk and trunk gas struts — when to replace and what to fit

Gas struts (lift supports) for the frunk and trunk lose pressure over time — the frunk lid won't open all the way, the trunk 'folds' on opening. This is a cheap and quick replacement. We cover sizes for M3/Y and S/X, when to use heavy-duty/'auto-open' variants, and the line between OEM and Ali.
