Can you give est. to replace hyd. shocks in my trunk? dysfunctional @present

approx 1 to 2 hrs labor plus shocks. shocks can vary in price depending on where you get them

Are you referring to a trunk strut? The mechanism that keeps your trunk open after you have opened it? if yes, this is a very simple DIY and the part shouldn't cost you more than $40. You can get trunk struts for less if you shop it online.
