Had to clip it in otherwise it works

I had to clip it in to hold it (missing pin/clip to stay connected to the metal latch) but otherwise works. I had to take some wire and thread it through the hole where the pin/clip goes to attach it to the hood latch. Therefore no 5 stars.

Pros
  • Automotive
Cons
  • Has flaws

Okay, but get gear too.

Article? So far, so good. Start by finding a 6-32 1/2" machine screw, 2 washers and a jam nut. You will most likely need them. I counter that for the cost of this piece of plastic they could certainly add those other inexpensive pictures and save me a lot of time and effort Note: Not that it's critical, but the arrow isn't colored red.

Pros
  • Hood pins
Cons
  • Big and chunky
