Securing Devices in Top Case

[RossKean]

Works perfectly. After about halfway up, it pushes the lid the rest of the way. It''s not going to fall. At all. These are rated at 30N (about 6 lbs if my converter utility is correct). That's plenty for one of these lids. I got a set of two for $10.

Are you just using it on one side or did you install both?

Just the one side for now. I may put the other one on for symmetry, but it's not needed for lid support. I suppose if you were securing things inside the lid, or had a rack mounted on top of th lid, it may be necessary. But then you might also want beefier struts as well.
