Abstract

A hood hinge assembly for a vehicle hood includes a support bracket and a hinge arm. The support bracket is configured to be fixed to a vehicle body structure. The hinge arm is movably connected to the support bracket. The hinge arm is movable about a pivot axis between a first position in which the vehicle hood is closed and a second position in which the vehicle hood is fully open. A stop tab is connected to the support bracket. The stop tab prevents movement of the hinge arm beyond the second position.
