How to Install a Hood Hinge on 2010 Chrysler PT Cruiser?

Before attaching a new hood hinge, it's best to paint it first. Install the hinge and place it so it fits over the holes already marked. Mount the hingle to the hood and fender; then use a wrench to tighten the nuts to 33 Nm or 24 ft. lbs. The next part is to add the cowl grille screen. After that, eliminate the prop and assess how the hood looks and fits, making certain it gaps evenly from the fenders by no more than 4 mm (0.160 in.).
