hey all...for all of you that have done the hood latch mod to your stock hood latch for the GT-4 front end, or are planning to, here's a pic of an actual LHD GT-4 Hood Latch.
notice that its LHD and not the normal JDM RHD. this routes the cable the correct way for us, no muss no fuss. hehe
the cost is right about $100, which is expensive, BUT if your like me, (no friends with welding equip., and not the greatest fabricator..lol) its well worth it.
with my luck, i'd try to extend my latch, it would break and i'd crash...not what i have in mind!! wink.gif
anyway, on to the pic!!

I have heare that some poeple are gettin away with just using the stock latch confused.gif is there any truth to this..

I tried with mine and it would lock down just fine but had to use channel locks to get it open agian but my cable isnt hooked up right now so it might of released if it was hooked up...

100 bucks is kinda expensive for a hood latch but mikes work is top notch so I can kind of justify 100$ for it.

on the gt4 latch the only prob is that the cable exits out of the opisite direction or does it have probs mounting?
