Default Trunk Struts

I saw a video recently about replacing the trunk struts on a SC400. I can't seem to find it again. Can anyone lead me in the right direction as to what thread it was?
If I recall, it was of a red SC400. My '99 has needed them since I bought the car in 2015 and am slowly fixing everything on it down to the last detail. Thanks in advance.

Mods should probably move this thread to Performance and Maintenance section.

I don’t know where the thread you mention is, but these are fairly straightforward items to replace. Remove the rear cover that covers the fuel tank, prop up the trunk lid with a stick, etc. Remove the ball joint connections to the body, replace the struts with new.

I bought the replacement units off of eBay I think. It has been a while.
