Hood hinge question

[cdwmotorsports]

What are the little clips that hold the hood hinges onto their pins called? I need some but I’m not sure what to search for.

yep, you can find those in the lil hardware drawers at Lowes but... those may be thinner and weaker than OEM. Double them up?
Some owners have drilled cotter pin holes in the posts. A flat washer and a cotter pin aint going to fail in this lifetime.

Seen them in the fastener drawers at the local Ace Hardware...

At one time, I think they were called Tinnerman speednuts, after the inventor, Albert Tinnerman.
