SpectrePerformance 42563 Chrome Hood Pin Kit

Q: How long are the pins?

I think they are 4+ inches long. sold the vehicle I put the on, 1988 Bronco. worked fine, stainless

Q: What is the diameter of the posts? I'm looking for a diameter no larger than 3/8 inches.

Hi, these pins are 1/2" diameter and work well. I purchased a 3/8" D aluminum pin set (Moroso 39000 3/8" Aluminum Hood Pin) from Amazon. Didn't like the shape of the hair pin, hard to pull out.

Q: Can I use these on a 2003 Honda civic

Well, I do not believe these pins are model specific. Most hoods have a contact spot where the underside of the hood touches a point on the body of the vehicle. Usually there are rubber bumpers of some kind at that contact point. If all else fails, you could use these pins at that point....or right next to it. There is plenty of length to the pins to accomplish this. The key is to install the pins first, then lower the hood to where the pins hit the underside of the hood and drill the proper sized holes at that point. My only disappointment in this process is that after a year or so, I began to see rust. I clean them off to get rid of the rust and then oil them to keep them shiny for awhile, but rust will come back. If there is a better quality pin, look for it. Can't help you further. Basic answer is: They should work on your Honda. I used mine on a 2000 Toyota Rav 4.

Look to be good quality

Not yet installed, but it is pretty easy to mark and drill holes. Quality looks good. I am installing just because I do not trust my release cable to not break at some point on my old car. And they look cool.

Works great

Installation was a little tricky at first but they work like a charm. Easily hold my hood down going 80mph with a broken hood latch. Affordable and reliable

Nice hood pins

Great looking chrome hood pins they were easy enough to install they were a bit hard to install on my Jeep Cherokee due to the original latch but I managed to mount them next to the only latch so now there are 5 methods that hold my hood down hood won’t be coming up on the highway any more
