raising the bonnet?
Turbo Mini Forums

i have looked in FAQ and how too also searched for about half an hour but cant find any info on how it is done exactly, i havent got the car here atm to experiment or anything so, how is it done properly, is there brackets or do you just use one of the bolts and rest on top of the other one if you get me?
please explain! and pics would be cool too.

Thanks, Dan

YOu can do as you say and just use one of the bolts each side... however amke sure that they are real tight and your front catch is ok ...
My mate did this and it flew up the windscreen

Otherwise you need to fit bonnet pins all round

thanks for reply T2 i will do that :)

Dan

hehe yeah make sure you do crank it up nice and tight, scared the shit out of us when the bonnet flew open, hence why ive got a nasty fibreglass bonnet now.

lol, i will do, should i use spring washers to make sure and nylock nuts?
also, how od i MAKE SURE the catch aint gunna let go? i ont fancy meeting the bonnet at speed iether

thanks! Dan
