Has anyone here put hood pins on their 05-06 Mustang?I thought it might give it A really cool and retro look,But I don't know if it could be done easily.
Thanks,

 

I've seen it done and I rather like the look of it.

 

yeah it's not hard just have to decide which ones to go with... i used these aerolatch from coastfab.com i strongly suggest you use stainless or anodized aluminum the chrome ones rust rather quickly. do a search here on the forum. there is a great link for install instuctions...? who it was from though.

 

it was from Mr. Gloves I beleive

 

Thanks for the replies,I went to the areolatch site,and those aren't really what I want,Besides i don't want to have to cut out my hood that much.I am looking for the old school look with the regular pins with the wire retainers.I bought A set of the cheapo Mr Gasket pins,But I have A lathe so I will probably make my own out af stainless or aluminum.I know it will make it look great and make it stand out.

 

HEY!

yea, i got them, but haven't installed them because every weekend here in Nor Cal has been raining [:@]

I have the "old school" hood pins from ford racing approx. $40 I had them installed for $100 well worth it. If the body shop screws em up I can sue. If "I" screw it up its.....as my son says......"sucks to be you!"

I have the same pins... ordered them from Summit Racing. Do you have a problem with the rings rusting? Mine have only been on a couple of months and I am getting rust on the ring portion
