Mine arrived this morning - Thanks again Matt! Hopefully I'll get these fitted tomorrow afternoon. Likewise thanks for the work you have put in to organising this Group Buy.
do these fit easy ...as in no drilling etc as my car is getting a full respray. ...if so I will take the last set please
You need to drill two holes. I'm going to fit mine next weekend. Could you confirm which side of the strut to put each washer @matt e?
The large washers goes between the hinge and the strut and the small one goes on the inside of the hinge with the nut
Side pic in case it helps with drilling the hole. When you drill the hole in the bonnet make sure you drill it so that the nut can fit behind. Template is pretty accurate. I used an extra washer between the spacer and wing, but you don't have to. You can just see the original bonnet stay bracket bent outwards towards the side of the car. I just put a large adjustable spanner on the bracket and levered it outwards until it clears the gas strut body.
