i got mine at murray's i think, any parts store should have em. maybe you could run just one strut on the hood instead of 2.

or buy some worn out ones from someone's steel hood... <grin> they should still do the job for a fiberglass hood.. hehe

Tyler.

PS - As for attaching the hood to the hood mounts... I haven't the slightest idea... do they not incorporate some way to do this in the molding?
