New Old Stock hood latch for a 1969 Mercury Cougar, it will fit the 1970 too. Starting in 1969 until 1970, Mercury had three different hood latches. This late 1969 version has the medium length handle. Those early 1969 latches are a two finger operation for those of us with large hands. This is probably the only version as a service replacement from Ford.
Replaces Ford part number C9WY-16700-B.
