Grease for hood latch assembly

Should the moving parts on the hood latch assembly be greased up, or is it not really needed, if so just grease any part that moves right?

sounds good to me... Use some chassis grease that should do it. Just don't go overboard. Do you have a squeak or something? If you do, it may be better to adjust the rubber/plastic stoppers under the hood. That will create more tension when closed and may solve a squeak.... (If you have one that is)

Naw, no squeek or anything, me being a neat freak noticed that it was grimmy and decided to clean it up, so I figured I would put some grease on the moving parts or something.
