Who else sells them besides Ecklers and MA?

Do they come with latches and everything ready to install? :confused:

I'm sure you can also get them from Vanacor too, but I highly recommend Eckler's hood. Buy it through Gruhala and get about a 10% savings. No, the latches do not come with it, but the mounting plates and the bolts will be on the hood.

You'll love the hood, sure keeps the engine running cooler and adds quite a bit of tq as well.
