Hi Forum....a beautiful day.....amazing sunshine....I had time today to wax and polish my 71 after its journey from Canada to Denmark. My daughter wiped/detailed the inside of the car and the rims. I did the outside. NOW she(the car) shines again!
I must be daft......I have trouble opening and latching the hood pins. What am I doing wrong?
To open....I press down slightly and turn.......but I always end up pressing/turning a few times before it finally unlatches.
The exact opposite is true when I try to latch the pins too........I find it quite fiddly and it takes several push-down and turn trys to get it to latch.
I am really careful when doing the above, so as not to damage anything.
What is the technique?
