It's going to be a tight fit .. remove the four nuts on the hinges. Two on each side. .

If you can't remove your hood without asking how to do it, chances are you probably should have someone else do it for you... Not trying to be a dick just trying to spare you any unnecessary accidents

If I can do it anyone can! You really do need someone to help hold up the hood when you remove the bolts.
Here's the video I watched first:

don't forget to remove the ground wire too. and disconnect the light if you have one.

Oh yeah, I forgot - my light was dead anyway, so I just took it out.

you can make it a whole lot easier to line up later by first drilling two small holes where the hood mounts meet the hood. Line them up with the correct drill bit when you put them back on an you are 95% of the way there.

there's not much adjustment on our hoods compared to the old hoods. so drilling an alignment isn't really needed. and useless if your changing hoods.
When I got my cobra hood we bolted the hood on , closed it slowly to make sure it wasn't going to hit the fenders. (all was clear) then latched it down and drove 2 hours home.
Once home all I had to do was tweek the fenders some for the perfect alighment.

i used a china pencil to outline the hindges before removal. after removal noticed there was no room for adjustment... lol.
