Manta Hood Stay?

ephillippe · 09-22-2008

Just wanted to see if anybody happened to have something along the lines of a "hood stay" on their manta. The hood on mine opens and stands by itself - until something happens to move the car just a tad then it comes crashing down (On my head, 3x

) I've used misc. items to hold it open, but it actually looks like there were provisions for a factory hood stay on the drivers side, does that sound familiar to anyone?

(I know I can just make one, but wanted to see how the factory did it if they did)
