Overview
The Daystar KU71105BK is a replacement hood pin grommet, part number KU71105BK. It is labeled Universal Fit and is sold by Daystar.
Measure the existing grommet and confirm the fit against your hood before installing.
Hood pin basics
A hood pin grommet sits in the hood or latch area and cushions the pin, keeping the hood from rattling and wearing the metal. Rubber grommets harden and crack with heat and sun, so a worn grommet often shows up as a loose or noisy hood.
When choosing a replacement, compare the inside diameter, the thickness and the depth of the seat against the old part. Old grommets are usually replaced in pairs or with the pin itself, because a worn pin can wear a new grommet quickly.
Clean the hole before fitting so the new grommet seats evenly and does not pinch.
- Look for cracks, flattening or tears in the rubber
- Check that the grommet sits fully seated in its hole
- Replace a worn pin along with a worn grommet
