hood pins aren't the answering, check the adjustable rubber screws and the latch and catch tolerances...

hood pins are an alternative to that method of closure for people that don't trust hinges or no longer have a place to latch the hood. in all reality they make the car unsafe because the car is built to break when the hood is hit then you should have hooks at the rear that prevent it from being forced at your neck... by using hood pins you negate the plan of the engineers in crumple zone research for the sake of either looks or make shift work on a job.

but for the record those pins on the stang are fucking hot.

by the way your comment is ignorant unless you think your displacement is significantly bigger and will give you a hope in hell against cars like mine. showing that you think toyota's or honda s are superior only shows that your are inferior to someone willing to be educated in both.
