Finally sorted the bonnet!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
« on: 11 August 2008, 14:15 »
Finally,

After much swearing and p!ssing about in the garage I've finally managed to get the driver's side down level with the wing :smiley: :smiley: :smiley: :smiley: :smiley: :smiley: :smiley: :smiley:

I know it has been the subject at many a meet and pics I've posted and really needed doing.

took off the front VW badge and then loosened of the front latch housing. Down it dropped about 5-7mm and hey presto!!!!

It has been bugging me for ages now and I'd even thought about motorsport bonnet latches and even  putting the standard bonnet back on!!

Time to clean the car now and get some decent piccies up :cool:
