I could not figure how to install the Finish Line hood prop rod. It just didn't make any sence to me. (I never said I was the sharpest tool in the tool box!)
We drilled a 9/16" hole and inserted a short pirce of rubber hose to apply a little spring force. I made a sliding clip out of alumium stock so the hood rod will not slip out un expectedly. There is another clip on the hood to hold the rod when not in use.
