K-Tuned Quick Release Hood Hinges were in development for a few years before the final design was finished and released in 2016 along with the patent application completed.

Too many times have we seen two people at the track removing a hood with a socket trying not to damage anything. Our Quick Release Hood Hinges are designed to be removed by one person quickly without tools. Once the hood is lifted past 75 degrees you can lift it right off. Below that the hood is held securely. There is a locking pin as well as a alignment screw on all hinges. The pin and alignment screw are only used to install the hinges. Once they are installed you can remove both.


Recommendations:
Install one hinge at a time. This will make it more manageable without trying to line up the hood. Get alignment and everything perfect making sure the hinge doesn't contact anything. Once you finish the one side go to the other side. Once both installed and everything moves smoothly you can remove the lock pins from the top. Slight cutting of the weather strip is required.
