I went in the other direction and swapped my standard deck lid (w/ condenser) for a carrera tail.

The stock setup only uses one gas strut, but since the tail was heavier I needed 2, so I had to get a passenger side hinge with a gas strut mounting point.

The driver's side hinge is formed to accommodate a strut, but the passenger side is not - so they weld on a small plate. You can still use the passenger side hinge, but you don't need that strut for just a regular lid even w a condenser.
