Take a look here. I believe Rick's method is what you are looking for.

  Do you mean the standard pins like are used on race cars, that stick up
  thru the hood surface and are secured with a spring clip?  Or some
  other kind of pin?

    Cliff,
    I put pins in to secure my rear deck-lid and they work great. I've
    had the deck lid off several times and
    It was no problem getting everything to line-up again during
    re-assembly.
    Your mileage may differ.

  Folks,
  1972 L with original "fat" rear deck lid struts. Car has that huge
  after market wing on deck lid (ugh) Not concerned with deck lid not
  staying open as I installed a "prop" rod. What I am concerned with is
  the side to side "movement" in the deck lid which is chipping the paint
  on the rear corners of the car!! I recall someone mentioning they
  installed "pins" that align the deck lid by the pins dropping down into
  holes drilled in rear of car.
  What are recommended solutions to this age old problem?
  Thank you in advance for your always ingenious feedback!!
