Default Hood Pins

Could you 67/68 owners post some pictures of your hood pins. I am going to buy some if I don't get them for christmas. I was wanting to see how they were mounted on the radiator support.

the only hood pins ive seen on 67's were on special brackets, this is because ive only seen a few 67's with pins, they could go on the rad support, but every one wants Eleanors

edit:brackets available here

I've seen posts on here where they put them in place of the hood bumpers. There is just one problem though, that now there isn't bumpers... I believe I saw someone do put them there and then slip rubber pads of some sort around the hood pins so there was still some sort of bumper there for when the hood is closed.

for the bumpers and to make sure it doesnt move around, just slip some rubber gas line around the pin and cut it to the length you want so the hood stays at height you want it to
