Hood pins---???

I am thinking of installing the lanyard style hood lock pins on my 67 Barracuda. I know it is not correct and they did not come with them, just wondering if any of you have done it on a pre-70 A-body. The hood on my Comet starts the jitterbug at 85+ mph and the whole hood over the windshield thing makes me nervous.
