ok i got the hood i won from ebay in today and mounted it on the ST. anywho i thought that the hood would close even if the safety hook wasnt long enough. but i guess i thought wrong? the hindge thing falls short about 1/2 - 1 cm >.> is this how it is for everyone too or can you close yours even without the GT4 hood latch?

i am using the stock latch (unmodified) and have no problems so far, its been nearly a year now. as for closing it should be no problem just pushing on the very front lip of the hood until it clicks down, just be careful not to push on the hood skin as you don't want to dent it, i plan on extending the safety hook here this next month or so myself as i have never found a new latch, so i guess what i'm trying to say as i ramble on is be a lil more forcefull (carefully) and it will close properly for you.
