[QUOTE="Steve@TF, post: 15931529, member: 40308"] just a "little" update for y'all. not on the hoods themselves per se but on the re-designed latch plates. this is just a crude prototype for test fitment. as ridiculous as it sounds, it took this long just to get to this point. and huge thanks to UncleSam for his continued help with test fitting and his help with trimming this prototype to make it work. you're my boy Blue! :cool: the re-designed kits will be super simple and should cause less headaches for installation. they are comprised of a top plate, and a bottom plate, with some rivets. you take the C shaped piece and slide it inside the hood through the square hole. you can even clamp it in place if you're afraid your butterfingers won't let you down and you may drop it.. line up the pre-drilled holes and put a rivet in there and pop it into place. with the thickness of these pieces you should (hopefully) not need to F with the latch at all. ***for existing hood owners, this can easily be retro-fitted. you will still use your large, visible top plate. i can send you the bottom, hidden C plate. for these folks, the C plate will be blank. it is mild steel. you line them, mark your holes to be drilled after lining it up with your top plate, remove the C plate, drill the holes, then slip it back into place and pop those rivets. for the existing owners who would like this C plate, there is no charge. just shoot me a pm with your shipping address and i will send one out to you as soon as they are available. for the new hoods, they will not be ready in time to be installed during production so they will have to be installed locally once the hoods are in the warehouse and before they ship out.
