I am thinking of putting Steeda slide style hood pins on my car for safety. I have the steeda cowl induction hood. Need you guys thoughts.Would it look good.

I'm gettin hood pins on mine as soon as i get the freakin rear quarter panel fixed[:@]

 

Yes it would look good. Go for it.

 

I personally dont like the steeda pins.I was looking into the twist down hood pins like on the GT500KR like the 68-70's. I dont think these are going to fit though. might be to short.

Mine came with my hood I bought used, not sure if these are the pins you're talking about.
But they work great, and risk not scratching or rubbing on the paint, or someone steeling your pins.

Yours appear to be the same ones I have. They are the Sparco pins.

They work great because the pin itself stays attatched without the need ofa wire like other ones or just a pin titself hat can get misplaced. I would get some sort of pins for that hood. We have that hood a mustang we did for SEMA last year and it scars me when driving it on the freeway.

 

There ya go, thanks!

 

I thought that I saw the twist down hood pins on a S197. Maybe the 08 GT500KR? I had the hood pins and cable on my 67 coupe a long time ago and I just remember it being a PITA. But I really do like the twist down pins. fd

 

It would look great, nice car
