How hard for Hood Pin Install?
One of my roommates who has a 2001 GT gave me a set of hoodpins because he got two sets by mistake.
So, how hard are they to install? They are the APC ones I think(No wire at all), just a big A screw and a clip.

I dont think the ones for the SN95s are long enough for the S197 Stangs.
Maybe some pics of these hoodpins you want to install on your S197?
Found in the stickys at the top of the forum page:

One forum member found out the hrad way AFTER drilling the holes in the
radiator support, mounted the pins and they didnt even touch the UNDERSIDE
of the hood nevermind going THRU the hood.

well if its that obvious they are going to be that short then mod it to make them higher, everything and anything can be made to fit with a lil bit of moddifications.

Yea, that is the hardest thing I am getting past... Might wait till the 25th when one of my parental units can help install them. haha
Here are some pictures: Are these really Steeda hood pins? If so I should buy my roommate some dinner...
