Title: Thanks for the guides
Post by: Jimbob on 13 April 2011, 09:37:11

Big Thanks to Razzo for a guide on removing wishbone bushes ready for sliding in the new poly bushes

and to Marks DTM Calib for a guide on replacing your bonnet catch spring, great when you r bonnet wont release even if the cable is the correct tension, and I guide I need myself!

And me, been fiddling with the bonnet catch on the other car constantly. To no avail. Thanks Mark, and Razzo.

All feedback on the guide appreciated (as it sometimes seems easy to me yet I may be assuming certain stages)

Previously I couldn't gain access to the underside of the slam panel to release the spring from the cable. Noticed the small nut by the rad to take the under cover off but asn't sure I wouldn't end up with a load of bits pinging off in all directions. Should be easy enough now I can see how it works.  :y

 Spring is badly worn as it was set up loose and bonnet was rattling while driving. Presumably because they hadn't sussed the cable adjustment.  :-/
