Ok, search isn't helping me here. I thought i was crazy, but there seems to be an issue.
One of my rear liftgate struts erupted fluid when I oppened the hatch on Saturday afternoon and definitely needs to be replaced before I crack my skull.
Naturally I went to Amazon and did a search. The top result said HHR 2006-2011 but the part finder feature said "this does not fit your 2011 HHR". Confused I scrolled down and it shows

Compatible with following Chevrolet Models:

• HHR LS 2006-2011 All Engine Wagon
• HHR LS Panel 2007-2011 All Engine Wagon
• HHR LT 2006-2009 All Engine Wagon
• HHR LT Panel 2007-2010 All Engine Wagon
• HHR SS 2008-2010 All Engine Wagon
• HHR SS Panel 2009 All Engine Wagon

What the heck happened to the LT in 2010 and 2011?
Some of the comments are saying that it "doesn't fit the HHR" but don't include year or trim level.

I then went to Lift Supports Depot and did a model filter. 2011 LS and Panel have rear supports, but not the LT

I am at a loss. I didn't think any body differences existed between the LS and LT.

Their parts book was from 2008. They are all the same.
The length an mounting is what counts.

Thanks! I ordered those. Should be here on Wednesday.

I ordered these off Amazon, they were perfect and quite strong.

Lots of places will sell you a shorter on that "fits." Watta PITA. Make sure they give you the same length. (Don't go longer, originals are pretty much at the limit for avoiding hinge damage.)

I pickup up a couple hatch and hood struts at a boneyard. They don't have predictable lives, so I don't replace in pairs.

These worked great. Thanks!
