Default Hood Insulation Kits
Where is the best place to buy a hood insulation kit for a 74? Does the kit include the pins?

IMHO, Zip, %5 discount thru the Restoration Store here on the forum. No, the pins are seperate.

I bought the non-OEM insulation from Zip for my '74.
Worked great, you can also get the pins from them.
:cheers:

Got the insulation (pretty & shiney) from Home Depot and retainers from Dr.Rebuild, Looks good, performes very well. Used the old one as a template and let the kids trim it as I supervised with a cold brewed beverage in hand!!!

I paid the big bucks and got the factory pressed from Zip. It looks great.
