Frankly I've replaced them on every car I've owned that had them except the Box.

The seals go out. Have tried to teach wife to ease the trunk lids down, but she slams them anyway.

Our DD MX-6 was the worst as far as effort required. I "saved" some money by not buying new mounting clips from Mazda, and prying the ends off the old ones was slow, agonizing work!
