Hood Lock

[icEbErg629]

Has anybody installed a hood lock in their 8g? I know this can help prevent thieves from stealing parts under the hood or disabling your battery/siren..etc. Hornet and Dei sell it but I'm wondering if there's one that is designed for our 8g latch...less drilling and such. :twisted:

hey iceberg...check out kalamidad's post on this forum. He has the problem making his headlights flush. Notice in the pictures..he has a hood lock on his 8G. He should be able to help you out.

i think he's talking about the hood locks that are like the ones in this club si tutorial ('http://forums.clubsi.com/showflat.php?Cat=0&Board=UBB7&Number=5342769&Searchpage=1&Main=5337857&Words=%26quot%3Bhood+lock%26quot%3B&topic=&Search=true#Post5342769')

my suggestion of you don't want to do that, get a battery backup for your alarm and throw some sirens inside your fenders and some inside the dash.

will update some pics when I redo my exterior. I have 20% mirror tints that looks greenish with our factory windows but I'm planning to switch to 3M Black Chrome tints sometime this year https://www.thegalantcenter.org/style_emoticons/default/smile.gif

Its just a certain type of tint film. Local tinting shops should have those.
