Hello all. I'm looking for replacement struts for the rear glass. Anyone know of a source for new struts? Ideally I would like to get ones with the tangs for the rear defroster but I'm not stuck on that.

And yes I did a search...no good info...and checking junk yards for good used ones is not an option as I could look for a week locally and not find a B car let alone a Wagon.

Thanks in advance.

Now have to wait to see if they arrive with the electrical terminals for the defroster.

I used Monroe 901254 Max-Lift Gas Charged Lift Support from Amazon - http://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B0012WTY8E?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o03_s00. They had the tangs and work well. Almost too well to the point where I was holding the glass when they were first installed. Looks like those and Sachs are listed in your link. Not sure which ones you ordered.
