aba4430 Posted May 27, 2020 Share Posted May 27, 2020 So I was tired of just laying my hood support rod flat as my holder was broken. It has been like this for the past few years. The P/N for the holder is 657214080; it is still available and is under a buck at SPFY. However, it is one of the newest parts on my Brat. Simple things such as these parts can add a few horsepower to the older Subaru's and a bunch of 's. Please disregard the dirty engine compartment. I need to clean it up well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Step-a-toe Posted May 27, 2020 Share Posted May 27, 2020 Handy to know such trivia i used one from a 99 Impreza I pulled apart, so I now have a yellow one using current designer thinking of only things drivers needs to see and touch under the bonnet is yellow Had to use a bigger square drill to make it fit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
el_freddo Posted May 27, 2020 Share Posted May 27, 2020 I did the same as Steptoe but instead of drilling a bigger hole in the rad support panel, I modified the clip to fit the hole. I too now have a yellow holder for the bonnet support rod. Cheers Bennie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aba4430 Posted May 28, 2020 Author Share Posted May 28, 2020 A little positive color contrast under the hood also adds some power. Every little bit helps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
