Re: 2005 Grand Cherokee WK 3.0 CRD - tailgate struts question

I need to replace the rear tailgate struts on our Grand Cherokee - I sourced some from our local motor parts store but they are a completely different attachment so did not buy them as they were a ball end not held on with a Torx screw.

Do I have to buy genuine Jeep to get the same original fittings ?
