one thing the video forgot to mention is corrosion protection. after drilling the holes be sure to spray rust inhibitor spray available at your auto parts store. bare metal and water is car cancers best friend.

watching people install hood pins makes my teeth grind

[jmmustangs]

Nice video rotozip is best way to cut out notches in the plastic cover. I lined up my pin with front contour of hood each side I then seen in directions to run them straight across either way is ok as long as they match.

Hoods pins...I ended up installing them on my Mustang....because past 60mph the hood wobbles with the air in such way, it feels its gonna pop any minute!

Those hood pins look sweet on that S197!!!

Everything you said in the first 30 seconds just happened to my cousin. Lol now I'm looking for parts and knocking dents out of his roof

If I were to install hood pins, which I will do to my sn95, I would put some type of heat string on the stainless steel cable so you won't rash up your hood. As you would imagine riding along would cause the cables to scratch your paint.

Yea dont mind me, I wasn't scared to DRILL into my hood, but hell if i'm gonna Cut into this 10$ plastic cover that no one ever see.

[chevy]

Can y'all do a video of functional hood pins for the SN95!?

[edwardsteinjolt]

@cjponyparts: Is there a way to prevent the hole from getting rusted? or the rubbering will do that?

[buddyrebel_Garcia]

Nice video, I purchase this for my 2006 Pontiac GTO.

When I last had hood pins on my Mustang they were what held down the hood. No factory latch. Same thing coming on my next one.

[Isaihernandez]

I ordered these and got another kind of hood pins. I got everything except the plate and bushing.

[Deadmarsh]

Hi, I'm french guy... I've jut bought hood pins to a private seller. But in the kit There's not support brackets for the pins as you show on the video... How can I fix the pins in that case?

[Zerogivengarage]

They offer universal kits but these are designed to work on 05-09 only

[Dirks_NUMA_Files]

How would you attach the cover plates to a fiberglass hood? Not sure those screws would work? or is there a different set recommended for a fiberglass setup?

[nativewarhorse]

I installed this on my 01 bullitt and boy these hood pins adds more aggressiveness to the front end

[marylouisekinlaw]

Eddie Jackson How do i order the hood pins?

[inachu]

I would use something more than just screw that could come out and fall out due to vibration.

[orincoon]

awesome product but only downside is that the lanyards rust after a few months
