That's good, but might still need to find something that will warm them up a bit more. You now how a hose is when the sun hits it.

and update the sig when they comply with your OCD.

lol its more than ocd...one side of the hood is so tight it has no play, the other side you can lift and lower 1/2"

but i will!

You should have gotten black hood pins, those don't look right on your car at all...

How about you ziptie the lanyardsdown under the hood, or hold them down somehow so they only come out as much to make it around the hood and up to the clips. Know what I mean?

+1 on hanging them and using a heat source. I would use a hair dryer. Those things can get pretty hot, so dont get it too close or leave it in one spot for too long.

At first I thought it was just wire and was going to suggest runningthem through a hose.

I didnt use them on my hood pins. The day after I put them on, a pin fell out. They were real cheap and I plan on ordering some new ones. ANyone know where to get some good ones cheap?

do u have any pics of the actual hood pins underneath the hood? I am thinking of getting a lift off only for my drag car.
