Default Yup... AutoZone

They had to order mine, and it took about 4 days. Approximately $50. In the interim, my mechanic was just lifting the hood and snapping a pair of vice grips on the extension right above the black to hold the hood up. Made me nervous, but he seemed totally comfortable with it.

I don't know if I would trust a pair of vice grips like that, but hey to each his own, right...lol

They are easy to change, there is a small metal clip on each end that you pull up with a flat-head screwdriver and they pop right off. Here is the pricing at EcsTuning.
