There’s one shot on my son’s Instagram page that shows the hinges installed. We followed the instructions for the most part.

Re: Porterbuilt hinges pics

One issue we ran into was the back of the plate had to be recessed because when closed, the back of the hood was up about a 1/4”.

You can see it in the photo.

Well I'm hoping not to have to do that. My truck is painted so the less I have to butcher the better..
