hoodpins

Does anyone have a pic of there car with hoodpins?

What should i look for in terms of quality and functionality?

Does it make a difference that my hood is fiberglass?

Where is a good place to buy the pins?


thanks for the help.

I think I go mine here

option auto


just make sure you get aluminum or stainless. My first set rusted all the time.

You only need hood pins if you hood is fiberglass. The hood pins are just there in case the latch rips out of the fiberglass. With a metal hood there really is not reason for hood pins.

Ive hear of 1 TII thats hood tore out at 90mph. Maybe just a freak accident? I have hood pins. I would stay away from anything but the style posted above. Ive have the cotter pin ones and the moroso quick pins. Both are inferior to the Sparco kind. Well I think
