    Re: Any 73 NOS hood insulation?

    The pins were glued on to the hood so they could have got bumped before the glue set or the jig had some room for error. I think the thickness and the looking fluffy happened with age.
    The big difference I have seen is the color and I hit a few of them with black spray to cover the real green ones.
    I saved a couple originals so I may need to take a side by side look.

      You're right, because both repro hood pads I got had the same two holes a little out of wack. So it's my car's pins that are out of alignment.
