They are used for hood pins. Not needed if using hinge.

They still send those with every kit---I figure they must have ordered about 10,000 of them 20 years ago and are just trying to get rid of the damn things! When was the last time anybody built a roadster with hood pins?
Jeff
Yep, bend them up and use them for brackets. A brace for you dash?
Got it. Thank you all.

I used one of them to make a dead pedal. I saw it on the forum recently, can't remember who posted it.
