The original plastic hood prop clips for our cars are still available!

I ordered mine from Altha Fastener via Ebay for $6.00



Original, with two broken teeth, it wasn't holding anything.



New, installed, looking good!



It even came with the clip to hold the prop rod when not in use, no more laying it down there next to the stop!

Clip goes in the hole first, then insert rod if I recall correctly. I did it wrong first and it was a bear to get it back off (the clip bounced away and hid someplace on the intake manifold).
