3rd Generation Hood support?

I was wondering if the 3rd gen camry used shocks or like a spring mechanism to support the hood. Mine doesnt have any and its getting old using a broom handle to hold up the hood. Im asking the question because Ive seen both on ebay, thanks!

My 94 XLE uses shocks to hold up the hood. Not sure about other years.

Shocks. Look for the mounting holes at the corner of the firewall-inner fender area.
