    On a 67 GT500 w/ inboard lights. On the hoodlock support brace, I have 2) 1.5" plastic pieces, one each 1/3 way up on each side, glued on. Perhaps wire holds? Are they genuine? Is there a replacement?

    Hi Jimmy,

    Yes they are original and hold the wiring for the inboards.My car has them and they are glued on.Not sure if someone makes replacements though...Greg.

    Thanks. They kind looked like they came from Office Depot! Any ideas on where to get new ones, mine aren't exactly all there.

    If you strikeout in a 3M catalog, try and look in a Panduit catalog.

    Would anyone have a picture of one of these in its' complete form? I'm not sure what it looks like to search for one!
