I-10 speeds (and associated hood movement) have been freaking Shelly out a bit. Found these for $24 at the local Desert Rat (got a couple dollar discount for military).

Install was easier than the instructions make it out to be. Easiest way to do it is to cut the rubber off with a razor (don't unscrew anything) and then cut the pins with a pair of tin snips or something similar. They will separate and then you can install the new rubber. Installation has to be done at 70 degrees according to the instructions... Hood latches extremely tightly; highway speeds don't rattle the hood anymore!
