Fitment questions

Does the Ford P100 actually have a bonnet strut?

No – the Ford P100 uses a traditional bonnet stay rod rather than gas-filled bonnet struts to prop the bonnet open, so there is no bonnet strut fitted to any variant of this model. If your stay rod is missing or broken, that is the part you should be searching for. Alternatively, if your bonnet hinge or bonnet itself is the issue, those are listed separately on Findapart.

I've seen listings for a 'Ford P100 bonnet strut' – are they genuine?

It is very unlikely – the P100 (produced from 1983 to 1992) was a simple light pickup truck derived from the Sierra/Transit platform and used a basic prop rod rather than gas struts on the bonnet. Listings using this term are probably mislabelled or referring to a different Ford model entirely. We'd recommend contacting the breaker directly to clarify exactly what they have before purchasing.

What part do I actually need to hold my Ford P100 bonnet open?

The P100 uses a hinged metal bonnet stay rod, which clips into a holder on the engine bay side to prop the bonnet up – this is the part to search for if yours is damaged or lost. Some aftermarket kits do exist to retrofit gas struts to classic vehicles, but this would not be an original Ford fitment on the P100. Search for 'Ford P100 bonnet stay' or 'bonnet prop rod' to find the correct used part from a breaker.

Could a bonnet strut from a Ford Sierra or Transit fit the P100?

The P100 shared some components with the Sierra and the Transit of its era, but bonnet struts were not a standard fitment on any of these vehicles in the way they are on modern cars. If you are trying to retrofit gas struts as an upgrade, a breaker is unlikely to be the right source – you would need to consult a specialist kit supplier instead. For original bonnet hardware, stick to searching for P100-specific stay rods.
