Bonnet pins

[chrisniss91]

I was doing top speed run yesterday and saw the bonnet looking very agile so i backed off Where can i buy these from :?: Soz for being thick but how do you fit them as well never seen them on a car with the bonnet up

look at mine and you can just about make out where i fitted them, i took out the rubber stops then bolted the bins up through there, then you've just got to make sure you drill the holes in the bonnet in the right place and paint any bare metal.

Most rally parts stockists will do them, and you can get cheaper versions from most parts shops if u look around. U can also get flush fitting one with and without locks if You have expensive goodies in ur engine bay.

The common ones have the rod with the eye bolted to the front slam panel somewhere which sticks up thru a hole in a round plate on the bonnet with a pin attached to it.
