*NEW DESIGN FOR 2024!* Now no tools needed to make change between closed/open positions!
Adjustable sliding engine lid / Decklid standoff brackets from EvaResto.
Supplied as a pair - for one vehicle.
The traditional style decklid standoff brackets have been available for years, and serve a purpose in allowing extra cooling air into the engine bay for either big HP motors, alternatively cooled engines, or just purely for aesthetics!
Although they work well, if you'd ever like to 'close' your lid fully without dismantling the whole hinge bracket and re-aligning your engine lid, you'd be out of luck.
That's where our Adjustable standoff brackets come into play.
With just the removal and re-installation of 2x finger turn bolts the whole lid assembly can be either set at stock, or fully opened for that fully 'stood off' setting.
Can be taken from fully open to fully closed in just two steps in no more than 30 seconds, with no re-adjustment of the 'lid needed!
Installation is as simple as fitting factory units, and should allow for a properly fitting engine lid.
Please note: Although this product matches the dimensions of the stock hinge bracket, fine adjustment of the decklid fitment is a process that requires patience and skill! Be careful to allow proper clearance when fitting, reducing the risk of any paintwork damage.
The stood-off position can give lower engine lid clearance issues on pre ‘67 engine lids (long style) with stock blade bumpers - just like traditional engine lid standoff brackets. An adjustment to your bumper/bumper brackets may be needed!
It is vital that you keep the slider channel/mechanism oiled/greased to maintain easy adjustability when exposed to rain/moisture.
Can NOT be used with factory engine lid spring.
Supplied raw finish only! These brackets require painting/finishing correctly to prevent corrosion. Keep the track, and lock screw clean and well lubricated for the best results.
Original hardware can be re-used for fitting to your car.
