[QUOTE="DrDmoney, post: 424560, member: 17035"] Fixed my imaginary hood flutter issue today. I really liked the way the factory JL latches work so that’s the way I went, pretty simple install, here’s some pics. [ATTACH type="full"]115322[/ATTACH] the bottom half is held on by 1 nut it takes a 13mm socket, I used a 3/8” drive but a 1/4” might fit better, I had to fish the ratchet up in between the fender and the brace, there is nothing else to remove to get to it. [ATTACH type="full"]115323[/ATTACH] the top you will need a 10mm socket, keep an eye on it cause they like to wander off. [ATTACH type="full"]115324[/ATTACH] the alignment nubs aren’t the same spacing and some people drill the holes in the hood larger, I didnt go that route because it’s not that critical if they are there. You can cut them off or cut them down so they fit, I cut them down but if I was to do it again I would cut them off Because it’s easier to align the two halves. [ATTACH type="full"]115326[/ATTACH][ATTACH type="full"]115327[/ATTACH][ATTACH type="full"]115328[/ATTACH][ATTACH type="full"]115329[/ATTACH][ATTACH type="full"]115330[/ATTACH][ATTACH type="full"]115331[/ATTACH][ATTACH type="full"]115332[/ATTACH][ATTACH type="full"]115333[/ATTACH][ATTACH type="full"]115334[/ATTACH][ATTACH type="full"]115335[/ATTACH][ATTACH type="full"]115336[/ATTACH][ATTACH type="full"]115337[/ATTACH][ATTACH type="full"]115338[/ATTACH][ATTACH type="full"]115339[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]115325[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
