I'm really like these. I would guess they would work on a 66 mustang. :shrug

Sorry but to me, they don't seem to match the era of a '66 Mustang which should be the basic hood pin setup.

Gotta agree....they would go on a heavily modified '66.....and even then questionable.

It is a nice system though.

I like these much better. These are on my short list for mods.

I saw them on a heavily modded 65, still didn't look right.

The black and white ones can be painted to match the car. I like the idea having hood pins and having them painted to match to blend in so they aren't as visible as shiny pins like I have now.

To big and bulky.

Too modern for our mustangs , modified or not. IMHO
Very nice piece of craftmenship though.

I have them on a truck project that I'm busy finishing, and on that vehicle they look fine, but I would have to say the Quik-Latch would look better on a vintage pony.

Here they are on my truck.

I think the mini quik-latch on a air cleaner is cool!

Holy $#!^, is that like 8 miles of braided hose under the hood? Cool build! We will need some video once its all dialed in.

A buddy installed them on his '67. They are very trick and look cool, IMHO.

I like the idea that you can order these with a key, and they are paintable. hummm?

I have been thinking about adding something to lock the hood on the Mustang and wouldn't consider something that does not have a key required to open.

If you paint them to match the car I am not so sure they would be that noticeable.

That was my thought as I was watching it.
