I canabalized a stainless door hinge to create a purchase for the existing hood latches, left and right.



Access for my Axis is much improved and changing the air filter or checking tranny fluid or fuses or anything is easier.
Well that looks like a job well done. No more blood draw from the top of your head! Where’d you get the pin/ plates for bottom?
