That tape looks like the way to go. In the past I’ve used black RTV sealant and it worked fine.

I’m with you. Hood springs do not seem be the best choice for paint matching. Sun and heat can slowly change the original shade. They are out of the Sun but in some heat from the engine. why not use the door jamb?

As outlined I can see it now. Rust against rust is hard to differentiate.

Post 3 does not show part 92. Not even close. The down stop does not attach to the #40 glass bracket.

You should be able to even up those gaps with the trunk latch.

This is all I have for ya.

That is a good question. It seems like it’s random. Probably depending on who who was working the line at the time.

I’ve heard them called barrel nuts. A friction fit installation. I have yet to see one installed with a nut.

It should come off very easily. Protect the paint with masking tape all the way around it and lightly score around it with an exacto knife to ensure you don’t remove paint with it. get behind it with a small pry tool and pop it off. it will then be evident to you how the new one gets installed .

need little to no maintenance, wife needs, well, let me think. Imagine if you were talking about an ex wife ….
