Actually, I am interested in your hood pins. Yours teardrop are strong billet ones but they look pretty tall. Do you make any similar to the flush "locking" types you see, or is there a way I could modify yours? I am very concerned of the crap quality of the flush ones I have. No matter where you get them, they are made out of pot metal and I would hate to have my hood go flying off. Ideas. Thanks in advance.

They are in fact designed so anyone can modify the height of the pins just by shaving down the "shaft" of the pin. You can just use an everyday hacksaw to get it to the height that works for you.
