You really dont need a write up. I found the instructions that came with the hood wranglers were great.

 

I just put the hood wranglers on... Pretty easy. All but 3 of the original "rivets" popped right off... On the last one, I had it off the truck, so I used a hammer and chisel and popped it off. No issues getting them on, but I did find that one end seemed a bit wider than the other and had a hard time squeezing in the truck side. I turned it around so the bigger part was on the hood side and it went right in. Latching them was stiff, and I heard a bit of creaking, but once I got to a certain spot, they popped closed. Road test tomorrow.

 

Go with the Tie Wraps - they are the cheapest method and cannot tell unless I was to ask someone to look. I would not count on the metal latch as I did until a tractor trailer pulled so hard that I now have a metal indentation from where the hood flutter stressed the hood where the hook is. Be pro-active and the best $2.00 insurance you will spend. Spend your money on other much needed upgrades, they are limitless with a Jeep.

 

Day stars rock. Quick, simple, cheap mod.

 

Agreed. My road test is complete... Very high winds and passing semi... No movement at all.

 

Same here... my kinda mod!

 

You could always just take the spring off the hood as I did. I haven't had any rattle or lift since. And it was free.

 

I did this on my last JK, and for the most part, it worked... but here in Colorado, and when I was in Wyoming, the wind is strong enough that it still gets underneath the hood. In fact, I installed my TMD hood without it, and the flutter was really bad (probably because of the different material?), so I had to use the Daystars.
