Aerocatch.com - Was posted a while ago. Smart idea considering how ugly hood pins are (imo). Even smarter that they made a locking set.

Expensive but they look like they'll work nice. Need a new hood before i go buying a set though

Good luck with those on a MX. Our hoods are at a decent angle to any of the flat sheet metal in the engine bay to attach the pins to. Meaning that they will not line up straight and you'll have to bend the pin to go straight into the lock. I have tried several sets of flush mounted hood pins on my MX and have never been able to get the angle right so that they connect easily and lock.

I have seen ones like that that are round and carbon fiber so it would blend into a carbon fiber hood. I didn't buy them because I didn't want to drill such a wide hole into my cf hood to install them.
