Talking Little Sweet nothings for the car

THis is a little item that I have done to the car to make it a bit easier to deal with.

I get a tech inspection every other week or so and there are more hands under my hood that under Miss Piggy's skirt. To make opening the hood for them AND me, I added a spot of paint to the hood latch for increased visibility of the latch.

The low light assist of a bright latch handle is not a nobel level idea, but it is helpful. If you have not thought about it, maybe this is Taaa daaa moment for you. I enjoy sharing ideas and this is one of the least difficult add-ons.

I slit a piece of cardboard and slipped it over the latch so that it masked off the hood area. One rattle can of your favorite choice color and your there. Enjoy, Woody.
