Default Hood props and t-top props

Does anyone have a link or know where to find the props that will hold your hood and t-tops partially open for car shows? I have done a ton of searching on Ebay and the net with no luck so far

TIA for any help.

Your hood won't stay partially propped? I know mine will

Make your own, ..., I did.
Since I have the black/gold theme goin' on, ..., I picked up some 3/16 brass rod at the local hardware store. I then used some steel wool to give them a nice finish & ended up using some clear rubber caps on each end.
Just pick something you can cut to length at home, work on it, & you'll get it there.

Thats a damn good idea, thanks. Would it be too much trouble for you to take measurements on the length of your rods, it would be a helpful guide for me. Also, did you make hood, hatch and t-top props?
