Fiberglass Hood Hinges...?

Good day Classic Bronco's,

A few weeks back I bought a new fiberglass hood from TBP. With the hood I bought the hood install kit which included new hinges, struts, and poly hood pins.

I started looking at the hinges and noticed there only only holes for the bolts that mount to bronco side... the hood side of the hinge is not drilled. Just flat?

how does the hinge attach to the hood?

Obviously I can drill but I was wondering if there is another way intended before I go drilling holes in things that may not be needed.

feedback appreciated!

It's up to you to drill the holes and gap the hood correctly.

DAMN my impatience!

I should have ran when I saw that the SS Hinges in the TBP kit were not a matching pair. Whats frustrating beyond that is someone actually put these in a bag and called it good.

In the end its on me for continuing with crappy hinges.
