Re: S2 hood on Coupe?

["Anthony K.B. Chan" <chan@seattleu.edu>]

Actually you need to do more than that since the underhood release/hook 
mechanism might be different, I am not sure if you might need to 
change the piece of sheetmetal crossmember where the hood release mechanism 
hooks to. I used to have an '85 5000s and release/hook and is different 
from the one on my current 92' 100 V6 which has similar kind of 
hood like the S2 coupe.
