I installed the original style welt (with the wire) on the gas tank. I’ve cut the welt 1 inch on both sides of the hook at the center and tightened the hook as much as possible, but it seems the hood is sitting too high. I can’t get the lines between the tank and cowl to line up with the side hinge line. I’m wondering if it’s the wrong welt or if these lines are supposed to match perfectly. The hood was with the car when I bought it, but it wasn’t installed, no idea if it’s the original or not. Other than that the fit is pretty good.
