S
so, i needed to get myself some new hood pins because of a tree...
called around and found that the pins range in price from 13.95 to 16.95, and that they would have to order them...loooked at one place on line and they were 13.95 and 16.95 for shipping (are you kidding me!!) so for $44.85 cents i could get two hood pins sent to my door or 22.43 each...OUCH!!!
went to our local fasteners type store in town...and got the same thing basically....
what i got is called a clevis pin. it's the same size width and length, and you could get it in longer lengths for the ladies if they so desire...
they cost me 69 cents each...the only difference is they are made out of steel, so they will rust over time, but for 69 cents each, i can replace them each year and not care!!
just want to share this cheaper alternitive for you all!
