Is something missing here?

Post by azygoustoyou »

Putting the hood and trunk latches back on. There are huge spaces around the studs. Am I missing something that goes around the two studs or is this the way the latches sit there. I have a washer and nut which go on the front.

I dont remember any sleeves for those studs. you want that much play. you will need all the movement to locate the hood properly when it is closed.

oh, okay. I wasn't sure. I'll leave it loose until I put the hood and trunk lid on.
Thanks :P

Hi Tony,
Thanks, I took mine off to show the spacing.
