    im on my 2nd set of sparco hoodpins and they work great. The locking one look cool but ive heard complaints about them. if u want to use the sparco one that dnt have a key lock, keep ur hood latch on there so u dnt have to worry about nebody just popping ur hood like i use to. i havent put my new ones on yet and the latch has been tested up to 140 mph.

    i dnt reccomend u trying this though, my windshield is already beat to hell so i dnt have nun to loose except another hood. lol!!

    havent heard of the locking ones flying up but ppl complain about how they do suck. its hard 4 me to explain how they suck through typing but the lock can start spinning and u cant get it to work right sometimes.
