But how were they originally mounted? Are there individual screws, washers and nuts or a single threaded plate as a backer? | | | | | Joined: Feb 2011 Posts: 170 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Feb 2011 Posts: 170 | They are held on with a rivet that has a smooth head on the outside of the hood. No backer. Scott | | | | | Joined: Dec 2010 Posts: 25 New Guy | | New Guy Joined: Dec 2010 Posts: 25 | I probably wasn't clear. It is the bracket that sits on the cowl and holds the hood down. picture Thanks
