Bonnet Striker Pins/Plungers

Anyone have a pair of these?

I bought similar items from a Dutch supplier - but they have an adjusting screw for length - this makes fitting impossible as pointing point is flush aside from the two fitting holes.

any info - let me know!

The Vixen part is non adjustable (as the catch itself is on sliding holes on the shell) and the TVR part is converted into a fixed item by welding the pin into the top plate. My thoughts are that the OE part is Ford, and has a joggled central part set on an angle.

Sorry to revive this one - Adrian is right - pin is short and non-adjustable as its welded to the backing plate...why would anyone "design" that!?

They're working at the moment - so no rush to replace anything - just a faff to unlatch the bonnet. thanks for the replies!
