Try - http://www.demon-tweeks.co.uk/produ...d=pins&classCode=MSPORT&brandCode=all&x=0&y=0

 

[Laura]

:s thats a different site completely to the one i was looking at

 

[y0z2a]

are you after the ones like the ones on our 1.2?

ie. like this?

because the other race "type" are now illegal - something to do with injuring pedestrians.

To put this type of clip in you have to modify the bonet quite a lot, and to be honest for most people it would be cost prohibitive.

I would suggest just maintaining your hole properly to avoid any unfortunate accidents.

[Laura]

no i want the same/similar to jons

 

[y0z2a]

what are they like?

this?





If they are then you can get them at Halfords as part of their RipSpeed "tuning parts" range. As I said above - they are no longer road legal according to our MOT chap as they are like the old Rolls Royce and Merc badges - a potential injury point if a pedestrian hits your bonnet. Its the same reason that you are not allowed them if you put a vehicle through SVA.

Have you not thought about asking Jesus where he got his? After all he has them, he is your boyfriend and you don't want any thing different to what he has, so you just seem to be just wasting people time by asking the question on here?

[Laura]

he didnt put them on they were on the car whaen he bought them, so he doesnt know where they came from.....

The ones on our 1.2 are aero catches which we sell - they are about £35 IRRC.

Aero Catches are mint. I have some for our 205 just need to get round to fitting the things.

Seem to be the industry standard catch now too, which is nice.

and the locking ones mean that even if someone breaks into the car it adds an extra barrier to them getting under the bonnet.
