I need to order hood pins to install a new fiberglass hood onto my 69 Plymouth GTX.
I looked at Summit racing, but they have 1/2", 7/16", and 3/8" diameter pins.
These dont have to be 100% correct, but what size and length do most of you use?
Thanks for any help, I did many a search, but cant find any info on diameters!

we use
Zuse fasteners I would think 3/8 but would depend on how many you use, length will depend on where you locate them on your body and the thickness of your hood. exc.

Thanks guys, I think I'll stay with 1/2" pins.
I will buy three sets, and put 4 pins up front and 2 in the back.
