Hi all ! The wood under the shelf looks solid but I noticed the holes for the hood clips are angled. is this correct or are they worn to the angle ?

angled, to make it easier for the clips to work.

Yes, the bottom is angled so the spring forces the hood clips away from the hood when unlatched. This gives extra clearance when opening the hood.

I made new ones for my car and put the angle on the holes. Works great.
