Or, you could try that rubber dip stuff.
Or, a bit of rubber adhered to the hood underside.
All depends on how OEM you want it to look.

I also wish I could quit whacking my forehead on the secondary latch hook ! laugh2



While working on my GTS I keep a tennis ball on the hook. I also keep the tennis ball on the hook when the hood is up at car shows. Several years ago had a lady whack the back of her head while she was looking under the hood. Her husband came up and grabber her around the waste and she jumped and hit the back of her head. She was bleeding all over because she was taking blood thinners. Big mess under the hood. Turned our she went to the ER and they put in 4 stitches. After that the tennis ball went on.

On the spring try heat shrink
