[DeTomaso] Deck lid hinge pins

[asajay at asajay.com]

Um... yes, true story.  They probably don't need it unless they've  
been removed many times.  I think it would be a good idea to cotter  
pin them or put a clip on or something.  If one comes out and the  
other doesn't, it could ruin your day really fast.
