I ordered these hood latch bolts for my '55 TO 35, part # 180654M1, but they don't seem to be working. Am I trying to use the correct mounting locations on the hood and base of the dash, or am I missing some parts. The "Z" bend in the rod doesn't appear to be acute enough for the rod to fit all the way into the hole and still pivot. My thought is to bend the "Z" into more of a right angle, but I wanted to check first with someone who has the correct hood latch configuration. I would have thought this would be a "no brainer" but I guess I was wrong. Thanks for any help, if you have some pictures of your hood latch that would be great.
