You can see this inside the hood when you are straightening the tabs to remove the hood strip. The hood will not come apart by removing the center strip. | | | | | Joined: Jul 2008 Posts: 15 New Guy | | New Guy Joined: Jul 2008 Posts: 15 | I see said the blind man  .I finally removed it. I dont know why I thought it held the two halfs together. Thanks
