Default sc400 trunk shocks failing - aftermarket source?

Hi. My SC400 ( 1992 ) trunk shocks (struts) are no longer able to hold open the trunklid/spoiler assembly.

Lexus part # 64530-29025, from dealer, costs over $135.00 EACH. Anyone know of alternate source and/or aftermarket alternative?

Thanks!

Default easy

They are easy to install. Takes about an hour for both. Do a search or consult the information area for instructions.
