Be very careful when putting in the pop rivets. If you have them in there crooked when you do it it will oblong a splinter the fiberglss on the stock hood. Then you'll have to move the bracket over from the optimum attachment location.

I thought I was getting a new hood last year and sold the Redline's. If I buy struts again I'll be going with the MRT's
