Hello Deejay, I'm now slightly confused.
Having googled 'Tenax' & 'Lift the Dot' it seems they are pretty similar. There's what appears to be a Tenax upper fastener with a 'Lift the Dot' self tapper that goes into the car frame.
There's certainly no 'lift the dot' piece as part of the hood itself (that reminds me of the hood fastening from old MGBs).And no, I haven't yet raised or lowered the hood with anything fastened and hence broken, all the fastenings are intact, it's just that both of the self tappers are actually slightly loose in the woodwork - perhaps been over-tightened at some point.
I was thoroughly briefed when I took delivery of how to be very careful when raising / lowering - of course, that doesn't mean I won't screw up at some point
