About This Part
Left tailgate balance rod for the BYD Sealion 05, matching OE 14258353-00 and reference UNE-6309511. This gas-charged strut (also a tailgate gas spring or boot lift support) holds the rear hatch open and eases its travel at the underbody hinge point. It fits the Sealion 05 EV 2025-2026 and the 2026 Sealion 05 DM-i 2025-2026. A weak strut that no longer holds the tailgate up usually means the gas charge is spent. The rod is handed to the left side.

Frequently Asked Questions: OE 14258353-00
Is this the left or the right tailgate rod for my Sealion 05?
This is the left hand rod, fitted at the rear underbody of the tailgate. Left and right rods are not the same part, so before ordering, keep the old rod in front of you and compare its position and shape rather than relying on memory. Looking at the broken part directly, while it is still fitted or freshly removed, is the surest way to confirm which side you are holding and whether it matches what is shown here.
The number on my old rod is not 14258353-00, can I still use this one?
If the number on your old rod does not match 14258353-00, check the fitment table on this page before assuming this is the wrong part, since it is also listed under UNE-6309511 and may appear under either number depending on how your old part was labelled. Match your car by the model and model year first, then confirm against the table here. Only order once the fitment table shows a clear match for your car.
What is the left tailgate balance rod main body made of?
It is metal, finished in black. That is the only material listed for this rod, so there is no lighter or plastic alternative to weigh up here. Because it carries the load that holds the tailgate open, a metal body is what you want under it rather than something that could flex or crack over time. If you want a firm price before committing, use the quote route on this page and have the OE number to hand.
Will I need to get this rod painted to match my car?
Supplied in black, this rod is fitted underbody rather than on show, so no paint matching is needed and it comes ready to fit as listed. To be sure it is right for your car before you order, check the model and the model year exactly as written on your registration document, since even small differences between years can affect which rod applies to your Sealion 05.
