Do the bonnet struts just prise off when you want to remove the bonnet? Before I go in there and snap them then realise they had to be taken off another way

If it's the same as mine then yes.
IIRC there is a metal clip which can be er-unclipped to make removal easier.

Hi Mate..I think they are at the top of the struts..I hope your not doing it on your own as the bonnet does weigh quite alot..Ziga

Yer was just wondering if the top of the strut prides away its a small ball and socket connection is that what comes apart?

Some of them have a small plastic peg that has to be prised out with a small screwdriver - it locks the socket to the ball. Should be obvious where you need to poke your tool wink
