    Realoem.com will tell you the precise size. Use it and abuse it.

      almost any 10mm machine thread will work there. they are the exact same as the ones use on the trunk lid.
      Much wow

        haha thats funny because i just replaced the hood.

        the one i took off at the junkyard i took the hinge with it, so that was 2 10 mm

        but taking it off the hinge is 3 10 mm.

        however i recomend taking it off the hinge and leaving your hinge on the hood. definitely way easier to put it back on.

          h ya they have a washer but they are the same as the 2 n the hinge.

          they say 88 or 8.8 but i believe that is the hardness.
