If your carefull with the mounting angles, you could set up the strut so at it compressed position it is just going over centre and has a nuetral push.
My boot stay is currently to one side at the rear, gets in the way a bit, but one to the side shouldn't hurt as the boot is usually open for a short time. Some guys use the ratchet type like on Holden panel van rear windows.
As for the bonnet, if your using a stay rod, make sure it it locks into bonnet in a tear drop hole or somehting, not just like a peg in a hole as the wind can lift the bonnet, stay drops out, and slam goes the bonnet.
