Does anone have pics of how the hood locks go on a W-25 hood? We're doing the final prep work before paint on my cutlass and need to get the new Fiberglass Concepts hood drilled for the locks. I bought the kit from Tamraz, but it didn't come with pictures or directions on how everything goes together. Any help is greatly appreciated!

If I remember right (memory fade) from the top, you have the scuff plate which simply has peel and stick tape on it that sticks to the top of the hold surround. Again, if memory serves, the "notch" goes to the front. I could be wrong. The pin has the spring located to the top under the twist handle and then is slid down through the top of the hole. From underneath, there is a plate that is fitted over the pin and has two screws that hold it to the bottom of the hood, thus trapping the pin to keep it from falling out of the hole.

The radiator support has pre-drilled hole in the front and you'll need to remove the nearby hood bumper and sandwitch it in that hole and replace the bumper.

OAI hoods had a center hood bumper as well near the front. Can't remember exactly where off hand.

I'm going from memory, someone correct me if I got it wrong.

Here's some pics I found. This might help. It appears I was wrong on the notch. It looks like it goes to the side. And the third bumper goes in front of the hood latch.
