Hi Jim,

Yes, they should screw into captive nuts that are welded underneath the hood 
drain channel. Height is adjusted by turning them in or out and then locked 
with a jam nut against the captive nut. I think I may have corresponded 
earlier that a "crow foot" wrench adapter on a short socket extension makes 
it possible to loosen and tighten the lock nut.
