bonnet hinge plastic bushes

Post by Ride_on » 11 Jul 2014 02:27 am

The 2 plastic inserts for the main hinge and the 4 small ones for pins, failing that the metal parts they come in. They can be very brittle and break when removed.

The main hinge bushes are down by the headlights.

The small hinge bushes are in the bracket attached to the bonnet

The spring rod bushed are also marked with a line, mine only has 1 which seems odd.

Bushes marked with a yellow line

Brackets that contain the bushes circled, best to send these as they tend to break when removed (except the spring rod bush as it is held in with spring pressure only)
