That depends on your "mohair" (canvas) hood. It had shrunk on my '76 making hood fitting a painful experience - there are a few on here who know how blinking difficult it was. I was going to fit hood tensioners, but:-

Arwyn beat me to it they would have put too much side load on the mounting points. I sold them to Owen (bilibib) eventually.
