aftermarket hood? do these work with an aftermarket fiberglass hood? like a 95 cobra r hood? Just concerned with drilling and causing cracking or something. 2 answers

• You can definitely drill it. It's just not as error proof as steel or aluminum. If you're worried about chipping the top coat, you can run the drill bit in reverse until the coating is rubbed off, then run the bit forward.

• Yes

Do you need to use the lanyards with the hood pins? 3 answers

• You do not. They are so you don't lose the pins and/or find a place to put them when you pull them out. Some people also like the aesthetics, but you by no means are required to use them

• no, I used this kit on my 02 GT and istead of the lanyards and pins i used mini padlocks. it not only gives you protection from those haters wanting to mess with your stuff but makes other Stang lovers wonder what youve really got under that hood!

• You do not have to use them. In fact, the hood pins come with the lanyards detached. You have to separate the hood pin rings to slide the lanyard eyes on to them if you want to use them. I used the lanyards with my car - it was easy to install and I like the fact that I won't misplace the pins - but you don't have to.
