What I don't like about those type is over time the wire will rub through the clear coat. Doesn't matter if they have a rubber coating on them, they will still chafe the clear coat. Thanks for the video. These faux pins are nice to see if it is something you will like before getting real ones and drilling through your hood.
@@JackFrost-xb9yzfor the old school looks. Not everybody wants to drill into their hood. It’s the same exact concept as to why a lot of factory cars have fake vents.
I drilled my '08 charger it looked cool but there's know way I'm doing on my 20 daytona. I'm going this route definitely. A bit of advice them cables are total ass the wear out, rust, and scratch paint over time.
If the cable is too loose you don't need to use the extension cable in the kit just go direct with the longer cable for a tighter fit...good job on the install 👍
LOL 😂, FAKE hoodpins??? I bought my shortbed, single cab 4x4 Express Ram HEMI and within a month took it to a body shop and had them paint the top of the hood Matt Black and they made custom brackets with real hood pins. And you can buy top quality cables from Detroit Muscle. 12 years later and they still look awesome.
I’d spray with a clear coat to the meal part before they tend to rust and or change color over time

I'm about to do this on my drag car. I've always liked how good pins looked never wanted drill into my hood because of rust and water.
Never had a problem with my 12 year old Ram Express 4x4 shortbed single cab. No rust ,no problems. Why put something as fake as that on a car.

LOL 😂, buy REAL HOOD PIN KITS with cables from Detroit Muscle, you'll find them on line. Why put fake hood pins on .
Love that you keep it short and straight to the point. 👏
Just a heads up the end of the pin should always Point inward so when you release them you're pulling them out word towards the wheel

Thank you. I will attempt mine now. Great video
1:02 fail. lol
I like this better than me drilling holes in my car hood
Thanks for the instructions 😊
Very good video, to the point and detailed.
I’m curios as to if people know that hood pins go through the hood and these are the same concept as fake vents
How do you remove the back red tape
Mine came into the mail but the aluminum string isn’t attached to the ring???
That's cause you put it on yourself
@@TheGamingAaron how? Mine didn't come through the loop as well
Did u get it to
good job!
Doesn’t the pin just get out of place when driving the car? I bought the exact same hood pins and they are too loose

But you’re trusting your to
Some eBay glue?
What if they come unstuck? then your hood will fly up and break your windshield.
If your car was fast enough you wouldn’t need fake ones
If your a troll you like this bots comment.
