We will be installing hood oins/locks on our '65 with a fiberglass hood. We want to use the locking variety. Most of the ones I see with the dealers and shops are the typical style which uses a flat thin plate with the lock porting extending above the plate. I have seen one variety that uses a thicker plate with the lock assembly flush with the top of the plate. They look a lot cleaner and smoother than the more common ones. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to get the source when I saw them. Has anybody seen these and know the source?

Thanks

Truck, take a look at this picture of my car:

If I remember correctly, the pins are from a 70s Mustang. I like the clean look. I purchased mine from a Classic Mustang in Pico Rivera (Ron/Lonny).
