Re: Project cheap
Its really easy just get someone to hold the bonnet as the whole thing needs to come off. I have read you can use washers. But I havent got any

Re: Project cheap
Im not sure they give you the right parts to begin with. Had a draw unit and the gave me two left hand side piece's instead of a left and right

Re: Project cheap
Bonnet raisers are simple to make, it's just a bit of sheet metal cut to the size lift you want then bolt the bonnet to one side of the metal and the bracket to the other doing it this way means the bonnet stays in line
If it doesn't fit,
force it,
If it breaks,
It needed replacing anyway
