Hello I have a 2000 wrangler and I want to take the hood latches off so I could paint them, but I couldn't figure out how to get them off??? Any help would be appreciated!!!

They are bolted on. Look under the fender there's a bolt. And im not sure you can take the top portion of them off.. They might be bolted on with nuts on the inside of the hood. I wouldn't paint them. The paint won't bond to the rubber part and it will come off.

they have a nut on the bottom but I have never had any luck in removing them..the whole bolt always spins on mine and you can't get to the top of the bolt to hold it
