Default Dual shock mount for engine deck lid

Hi
Somewhere on this site, i saw a photo of a home made arrangement to mount 2 gas struts on one side of the engine deck lid.

I'm adding a different (heavier) wing to the lid and would like to try using 3 struts. 2 on one side, 1 on the other.

a search revealed this post

The easiest/cheapest way (other than a broomstick of proper length) is to use a special bracket and have 2 shocks using the stock single shock mount.

I am not sure where his $75 figure comes from, Pelican lists the rear deck shocks for $12, and the dual shock mounting kit for $9.75.

unfortunately i don't see the mount anywhere on Pelican.

Have any of you seen the photo i'm talking about or do you know of any "dual shock" mount?

cheers

Craig

Here's one through Automotion: http://www.automotion.com/productpag...185&pid=110045 Looks like it's for the older cars though.
