Well...I finally bit the bullet! I ordered my SOS dampers today! I just can't stand that OE hood prop any more!

If your Seibon hood uses the OEM mounting points, yes the SOS hood struts will work.

After having mine installed for a while, the SOS struts DO rub on one super-tiny portion of the fender lip near the hood joint (both sides). A light bump with a plastic hammer or a regular one with a piece of wood to knock it down just a little would take care of the issue.
