When I fitted the hood brackets, it was more to see if that was a viable solution to fitting the hood.
As it turned out, it will work, so I set about refining them a bit.
They needed to be more precisely engineered to fit, so they did not
protrude into the (tiny) cabin space, or dig into my shoulder.
I took them out, heated them with the welding torch, and shaped them to fit more snugly, and cut a small slot in the body to make them even more neat.
I think it was worth the effort.
