Aftermarket latches are probably in the future, but I kinda like the thrill in high crosswinds. I just trust my center hoodlatch. A greater man than I said "trust but verify".

Took my spring out this week on a 1600 km road trip. Cheap fix. Hood flutter is gone.

I wished taking the spring out worked for me. It's to windy here, ill end up having to buy some better latches. I ended up just puting the spring back on o well lol

Daystars beat removing the spring. No issues after install with hood flutter.

Removing the spring beats daystars, because it's $30 less. :P

To answer the guy's question above, I've never heard of a hood popping up in transit.

I've had the hood flutter ONCE since removing the spring at high wind speed, on the highway, passing an oncoming semi that was definitely speeding. Aside from that, not a movement.

I don't think hood flutter is actually an issue, and the central and hood latches do what they do. Daystars are over the top in my book. Then again, I also haven't been driving around in tornado country like a lot of you guys over the past few months...

Is this issue fixed on the '10's and '11's? Or is it still an issue. I have not noticed the fluter on mine, but I have only had it for a couple of months.
Thanks
