This just worked beautifully on my 2022 Camaro ZL1. Hood was slightly low at the hatch and this brought it up flush with the rest of the car. Huge help! Took 5 min

I replaced my hood from hitting a deer. The hinges and everything line up. But when I go to close my hood the hook that connects to the latch is past the latch. Is there a way to bring the latch forward a bit?

it sounds like your radiator support might be pushed back to far if you can't adjust it with the bolts you could shim it out some but make sure the safety catch works properly

Hi, I need help. My 2000 Mercedes S430 hood was crooked/uneven when looking at it from the front after I got home from getting an oil change. Like it didn’t shut all the way on the drivers side. This panicked me and I can’t believe the mechanics left it that way. Could those hood stop things be causing this and do they work the same way as these that you’re showing? I sure appreciate any help. Thanks.

i've never worked on your particular car so i'm not sure but most vehicles are similar but i would take it back to the mechanic and see if they will fix it .

if your hood won't adjust enough sometimes you might have to shim the fender

I've got an 04 chevy avalanche that i put an aftermarket cowl hood on. I've adjusted the latch in the front up all the way but it won't latch. It's almost as if the metal piece on the hood itself is too short, do you have any suggestions?

i have had this happen in the past on an aftermarket hood if the original striker from the original hood can be used start with that if that's what you're using or it wont fit than if the striker can be unbolted then you can put shims or washers in-between the hood and striker but you may have to get longer bolts

I replaced the hood on my 2003 Silverado 2500 hd. And the hinges. Now it closes in the front but on both sides it sticking up at least an inch. I don't want to force it and bend the new hinges. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated

your hinges are probably adjusted to high were they attach to the fender. i have had to ream them out some if they don't have enough adjustment on chevys in particular.

@@JunkworksGarage i accessed my hood latch and loosened it a bit. I realized can be slightly moved to the left, to the right, up and down. My question is, if i adjust the latch to the highest level, what would be the affect on the hood? Another question is, if the latch is at the lowest level, will closing the lid be difficult?

To high it wont line up and would be hard to open to low and the hood will rattle when driving at high speed
