[TPR] Hood pins coming out?

The hood pin on the driver's side kept coming partially out.  Since the 
deck lid is off, I decided to tackle that little problem.  I marked the 
extent of the pin protruding at the very end, then using my safety wire 
drill fixture, installed a new hole in each pin.  I then sourced a 
suitable cotter pin to use as the keeper.

The photo shows the passenger side pin with the cotter pin installed.  
The hood pin is not installed all the way, this is just to show you the 
solution.  I'll take another pic when it's all installed.

Been doing clean-up work most of the weekend.  The ZF is about as clean 
as it's going to get without media blasting.  The engine bay doesn't 
-look- the best, but it's essentially clean.   Waiting on the engine 
mount donuts and the radiator.  I should be putting the engine back in 
late this week.
