Does anyone know where i could order shelby hoods pins in canada, or does anyone know how much shipping shelby charges to ship to canada. ON there site it only tells you after you have already placed the order which I find is complete

 

I just ordered mine from Shelby Performance. Had them ship right to my door. No custom fees or extra shipping charges (I think I paid $13.00 for shipping). The first set I received was damaged (due to poor packaging) but they immediately sent me another set at no charge and they are perfect.

 

So eventhough it was through UPS you didnt have to pay brokerage fees or ne thing. O and which ones did you order the ones that say shelby or the plain ones, and do have ne picks?

 

It was shipped through USPS, not UPS.

I ordered the plain ones. No pics yet as it is to darn cold for me to take the car out of storage and install them.

 

i ordered the black ones last week that say shelby on them. They charged me 13 bux as well

 

Ya, I take that back. I just received a bill today from customs. Cost me $20.51. Darn GST charge! Oh well, still not bad.

 

lol now you tell me i just ordered them lol ah well

 

When you go to install them, don't make the same mistake I did (I will post full details in my blog) but basically when you drill your starter hole from underneath, remember the angle of the hood. I just drilled straight up. Then using a step-up bit drill a 3/4" hole from the top. I closed the hood and the pins rub along the edge closest to the windshield. I should have angled the drill bit when I started. Now I have to file it down to compensate for the difference. The other problem that they don't tell you is that there is a reinforcement strip on each side of the hood. Right next to where the screws go. I snapped off a few screw heads during the installation. It took me longer to install the pins than it did when I installed the shaker hood.

 

When I installed mine, I was putting the first screw in and hit this stupid reinforcement strip as well and it would not go in all the way straight, so I went to the local hardware store and picked up some shorter screws (same style and material, just about half as long) and put them in instead, worked like a charm!

 

Well im going to install them where the hood stops are. More to the outside instead of in the middle

 

Have you done the install yet? Just be careful of using the hoodstops area as the plates may not sit flush on the hood.

 

I heard that if you just rotate the plates a little that they sit flush

 

Im thinking about just getting them installed from a shop as I do nto want to take the chance of screwing up my hood
