It's an inertia reel in the belt mechanism. No need to have the car running, or use the brakes. Sit in the car and jerk on the belt hard and fast. If functional it should lock up.

Rock auto lists two different part numbers for steel versus CFI (fiberglass) hood struts. I would not use your existing struts as you may crack the hood when you attempt to close it.
