Installing a fiberglass hood on my 69 Dart. The hood hinges are worn and need replaced. Installing new springs for use of the lighter weight hood. It does not appear that they are made aftermarket. Does anyone have a set for sale or can tell me what years would fit my 69 Dart. Thanks
 
67-72 are the same, they changed in 73 with the adjustment holes. Get a set of the lightweight springs and use what you have, you are not going to find any that are better. Nobody will ever make them new. Some people just use modern gas door struts, there are a few threads on using them...

They changed in mid 72 when the hood attachment changed. Top is 67-72 bottom is 73-76

With a fiberglass hood you want to use 73-76 hinges so you have adjustment. The bolt holes in a fiberglass hood are fixed . unlike a 69 hood where they move in the hood. Use the lower style I pictured above. With the large coned washer bolts for those Hinges. This stops them from sliding once they are tightened
