It sounds like something Spenco, the glove people, may of offered as an aft ermarket upgrade. Yes, no, maybe?

I was kinda plannin g on just getting new hoods at this point, but they were kinda neat in thei r own way.I'm kinda curious, anyone else seen these around? Can ya still ge t 'em?If this isn't period 'nuff I do apologize in advance, & do accept all
