That looks great. It's a shame Ford has never put a proper set of hood struts on the Mustang.

Do the hood struts block the battery cover from being removed? Really want to get those for mine when it comes in, but will be a pain having to pull them off to service the battery.

Thanks,

Chris

That is the one thing I noticed which could cause a problem. Simple fix would be to make the hole larger than indicated, and you can rotate the battery cover to give room to service the battery.
You could probably also dremel a notch for the bracket. Probably the easiest and cleanest.

Looks good. How easy was the install?

Really simple, took about 15-20 minutes.

Good to hear, I think I may go with these.

One of the members here cut a thin slit to the edge so he can just slide it off. He reported no issues.

Looks great! I have some on my car and I love them. Still think they should come standard in the cars

Sounds good, that should work!

You can get at the battery pretty easily. You can either pull the cover up and bend it, or twist the cover in a clockwise motion to after taking all the clips out. Either way its still pretty accessible.
