Hood-Pin Location??

I picked up a set of Hood-Pins with the lanyards from Dales Cuda shop, I did a search on here and found a bunch of different information. Is there a factory location for the pins? Also any one have any idea where to find a lower "Chin" spoiler for a Duster/Scamp?

Thanks.

the pins go in front of the hood stop. you can see the circle, then drill through the second layer of metal. somebody will show you a picture.

Here are some pics that should help. The circles area is where the factory location is. You will have to drill that out.

I have the AAr fiber glass hood and I am about to install my hood pins. Any tips for marking the location where the hood should be drilled?

Im planning on getting one from Spoilers by Randy...
They look good on his website and have spoken to a few people who liked em- keep waiting for a "sale" but he sticks firm on price.

I mounted the pin in the car put a small bit of grease on the top and shut the hood slowly. The grease leaves a small mark of where to drill.
