Mine is ever so slightly lop sided but until everything is in im not too worried, and yep I've got 12.9 high tensile bolts keeping everything held together

I'm only 5'9" so I'm hoping that I don't have this problem, guess time will tell

Oil leak could be vvt trigger seal, I've had to change mine as it was leaking

Omp subframe, sparco side mounts and plastic renault bits removed from floorpan Seat is only in temporarily until cage is fitted, can go lower on side mounts as well, for me it's a comfortable position neither too high or low (I am a shorty though)

My shifts are all over the place to be fair so if things do go ahead there'd be plenty of notice, I'd probably be taking a day off work for it

I normally get a heads up when there's anything like that happening so I can always give you a shout mate

Can you feel around to the release mechanism itself? If so try pulling on the latch rather than cable, might help to apply a bit of downward pressure on the bonnet whilst pulling as the bonnet has a spring to lift it when pulling cable from in the car

Bolt spacing is offset so it will only go on one way I believe, most manufacturers do this

Bonnet release cable runs down passenger wing and across slam panel, any chance of breaking the grille and finding the release cable and pulling on it to open bonnet?

I'm ex mechanic and still use all local tool distributors so whilst it works out to be a bit more I pay weekly so I don't have to fork out in one go
