Catches
Easy to install and adjust. Look pretty good and seem to be well made. Much better solution than the rubber bone style which I had previously that broke. These were a little more pricey but overall I would say worth the difference. Worry free so far.

not recommended
had to sand them latches down so they don't rest against my hood. Might just been my year 1997 that is a issue. also the plastic locking piece is a joke. broke on the 10th time I locked it.

Hood Catches
Decent product. I'd rather see a metal version offered (as the original stock catches were), instead of aluminum but these are the next best thing. Much better than the plastic catches are for sure.

Works!
These hinges are awesome! I love the look of them and they keep my hood secure. The hardest part was removing the factory hinges. After that, installation was a breeze.
