Sorry I was about half asleep.
Put your hinges on the firewall first,.have two people
and a broom stick,
put the broom stick under the front of the hood to hold it up.
then each person grab a side have your bolts ready,
use your arm and your neck holding the hood the broom stick
holdin the front, then you have a free hand to screw your bolts in.
Hope this helps
