In my crusade for an authentic look, one thing about the engine cover for me stood out with the cars I've seen. The locking position and mounts. Whilst not an issue when closed, Parallel's solution of a single, mid mounted lock and striker on the engine lid clearly was not going to be my way of doing it! To me it looks totally wrong so I set about a more authentic look. Building an SV I had 2 choices. Pin mountings attached through the cover via special locks as seen on pre98 SV's or hidden 'bear claw' latches and strikers. As I've fixed headlights as per the 99 SV style, I opted for the hidden arrangement. Here is an orignal striker mounted to my cover.
