Ok, I give up. What’s the magic method to removing the springs from hood hinges?
Tried everything, not winning…
TIA

Be sure the springs you have are for the glass hood and not a metal hood. Different tensions , same for AAR cuda. A spring for a metal hood used on a glass one can damage the fibreglass. Someone tell me if I'm waffling crap.

You’re absolutely bang on, that’s correct.
That’s why I’m trying to get the old springs off, so I can put the lower tension ones off. Just can’t find a way to pull the old apart hard enough to get the damn things off!
