I saw a few threads here mentioning the same thing: I broke the passenger-side bolt that secures the hood when opening it (I forgot to detach it first 😩).

Do I need to go through the dealership to replace it, or can I fix it myself? If it’s doable at home, where can I find the exact same bolt reference, and how can I remove the broken part that’s still stuck in the hole?

It's a common problem. It happened 3 times on my PlusFour, I wasn't brave at all and my dealer drilled them out and replaced them. You have to develop a Tenax neurosis" begin with the Tenax and end with the Tenax and let nobody touch it without your authorization. But nevertheless, sometimes it just happens! Some (I) suspect that the pre-assembled hoods could be too tight at some Morgans. Since 2025 they are fitted again directly on the cars, so I did hope that that could mean less strain on the Tenaxes on the recently build Morgan!🙏🏻
