Does anyone know where I could get ( and what they are called ) the part that fixes to the end of the hood frames and bolts to the body . It is normaly chrome and it pivets the hood frame tubes at the body , and allows the frame to move up and down. Thats the best way I could explain !!

I suppose the obvious answer would be to try NG themselves but I believe that these parts will probably be available from a 'yacht chandler' many smallish river craft and the like have hoods.
Can't help with a name: 'Hood Hoop Pivot'??
