Hood locking pins?

What exactly are hood locking pins? Are they expensive or hard to install? Do you recommend them?

locking hood pins?

they're hood pins that you lock with a special key...

You just have to drill holes in your hood and fit in the hood pins. They are best for thieves who try to steal your car and cant.:devil:

Man, I'm confused...
Hood pins are an exterior accessory but, they do hold some security value! :D

That's what I was thinking when I saw this....wrong forum.....but I got to thinking about it, and I guess it does have security value :)

the only draw back (at least I think so) is that you have some silly looking circle things on your hood.
unfortunately, if you like the clean line look...hood pins get in a the way of that goal.
:(


the look the best on carbon fiber hoods.
:D


however, these days, I only see FAKE hoodpins.
They're not real and do not lock the hood.
They are simply held on by double-sided tape.
