Excellent Doug, thats really helpful.

This could be the answer to what I've suspected/felt was as a twisted hood frame?

I'll study the effects adjusting these points on the nearside to see if it brings the hood into alignment, and if that in turn helps the nearside hood catch latch neatly, and more critically if the catch now holds when it's having to deal with a little less hood tension thinking

Looks promising, much appreciated thumbs
