Ok this some ricer $hit I know but I have no choice. I need to pic up my GT4 hood from Ngofcukingway butit's approx. 60miles away through the city of Houston and I have no truck. Just the Celica. If you've seen my Audio/Video thread you know I have no room in the hatch for anything.
In order to pick up my hood I have but one option - Take off my stock hood and drive to his place and instal the GT4 hood and then drive back in style. Anybody know of any reason why this would not be ok? Minus the obvious freak rainstorm, bird dodo in the wrong place or something flying off another car and landing in my engine bay. --------------------  |

the main latch is perfect. all you need to do is lengthen the safety latch hook by about a half inch or so. that is only really necessary though if you have the gt4 bumper. the stock safety latch works but it is tight. also, if you do buy a gt4 hood latch, make sure it is lhd.
