Yup, just like that... The length of the cable is supposed to be 18", and the pin is the flat kind as Chris pictured.

The screw hole pattern on all the Daytonas I've seen -- so far -- is the cross pattern. Superbirds seem to have (and I'll admit I haven't studied them nearly as much) the H pattern.

Then you get some of the odd ball Daytona's that have the hood pins going from fender to fender, instead of facing from front to back. Not as many though as the ones that have them going as pictured.

In this picture of Daytonas sitting in Creative Industries lot, there is one with cables going out!
