2. The retaining clips which hold the outer ends when the bonnet is closed are fine but are only held to the Forward Bonnet Catch Plate using double sided adhesive pads which are unlikely to be durable over time with the under bonnet heat. Are there any better fixings I could use that do not require drilling holes (I will drill if I have to)?
Frank could you not drill the retaining clips to take the bolt that holds the Bonnet Catch plate and bolt your plates on?
I have stainless bonnet stays fitted to RTA (probably from HoE / John Worral) - the forward retaining clips are mounted as I described.
Bought a set of bonnet stays for Tink, but not fitted, so they'll be spare after this week...
Cheers,
