I healize that hood squeaks and sympathetic vibrations go hand in hand with
being a TR-3 owner, but my situation is ridiculous.  The Dzus fasteners and
spring on my hood sound like a symphony of alley cats.  The problem has
gotten worse since:

1. Readjusting the rubber stops so the hood line matched the front clip
better.
2. Replacing the motor mounts.

Can anyone report some successful tactics for minimizing the vibrational
noise.  For example, might changing the rubber stops help?

Thanks.
