same chance as 1 and 2 i would say lol

I think there is less curve to contend with that way than there is going the other ways.

In options 1 and 2 they would be on the same plane, in 3 you will be needing them to curve with the bonnet.

batmans car they looked nice
but your getting rid of slam panel so i dunno
yeah they look better on black as you cant really see them as much but no choice of that tho ;P
172cup
well im the only one that said 2 lol... and as i;m hugely outnumbered, maybe you shouldn't listen to me!
In fact, NO... bollox to it... 2 is by far the best position, and anyone that chooses 3 is gay
Think about how you will be standing when you are actually USING the latches to take the bonnet off... that should decide it for you. Where will the weight be, how will your hands be in relation to how you are going to lift. You could easily undo the latches and lift in 1 motion, rather than undoing the latches and then lifting the bonnet seperately
car looks brill btw

EVERYONE gets the wrong ones, the ones in the pics i posted are the true 100% flush ones, the ones in that top picture i quoted stick up a good few mm

i prefer the 'wrong ones'. The proper flush ones look naff if cut incorrectly and without the carbon fibre surround like you have done. They do they nice though Fred, proper job.

fancy bonnet pins lol
TVR Cerbera
Me, and i thought f**k it when i bought it! Lol
Also due to the curve on the bonnet that was the only place to fit aero catches, flush or not, as i only have 1/2 a slam panel

3, If they'll work in that position, if not 2

we no longer have a slam panel, so the original bonnet catch is no useless, these will hold the bonnet the same way pins do and allow us to lock the bonnet when needed.
