More helpfully, if you take the front airbox cover off and undo the self tappers you can lift the air-scoop out. That gives you much better access to the hinge bolts both from the airbox aperture and the front of the car. Taking it off is the easy part - getting it back on and adjusted can be a b  h!

Mr. NoMates Right at the front bottom of the bonnet are the hinges you need to undo them and take off the bonnet its a 2 man job, I changed mine to quick release ones years ago so much easier, can not remember where I got then from might have been Steve Heath

There you go, so much easier then the standard one you just undo the bolt at the back and the bonnet slides off, when you want to put the bonnet back on there is a sleave that slides in the front of the hinge a bit like male / female type thing which the bolt screws in and pulls the bonnet into place and it can be done by one person
