I wanted hidden hood latches to go with the Zero-db hood hinges so I mounted two "Bear Jaw" latches from Speedway and then made two 1/2-inch male latches epoxied to the inside of the hood. The female latches connect by wires to a toggle on the hood support at the middle so a cable to the cockpit releases both latches when pulled. I hooked up the release cable before I closed the hood! Closing the hood without a way to open it is what I normally would do, so I must actually be getting smarter! I was really pleased that the hood latches worked so when my wife came out to the garage I showed her what I had accomplished. "Doesn't every car have that?"
Here are the male latches on the hood
