Can someone post a photo of an original klik pin for the hood pins on these 65-66s? I have a rusty klik pin that I believe is original but would like to compare with a known original before restoring . I also have repro klik pins and although they look nice ,they have 3 things wrong compared to my old rusty one.I have looked at many 65-66s but never looked at these or asked the owner if I could.
I buy most of my parts from Virginia Classic Muastang and they are great so Brant if you see this please chime in. Are your klik pins 100% correct?
Thanks

Not sure this helps, these were on a low #2000 number car - but we don't think are the originals. Others may be able to comment and you can compare to what you have.

Hood Pins and click pins are not correct shape. They are both too blunt on the ends from all of the ones that I have seen.
