Having tried parallel actuator and gas strut combination I decided to work on an idea of combining to two internally, scoured the internet and international patents office and nothing like it so I protected it with a world wide copyright. Amazed at the cost of a patent though, just not viable.
Currently in talks with a couple of interested parties, surprised no one has thought of it before.
As I managed to get the bonnet/hood to be balanced so only a fingers touch moves it up or down I thought of extending that with an actuator assistance but on the doors.
