Bonnet....And im not talking feathers in it either.

Hi peeps..
My bonnet seems to have started catching on one of the bolts near the cable mechanism for the bonnet..It wont shut until i physically move it towards the O/S about an inch..Does it need adjusting over as the O/S bolt wont move..I hope it hasnt started to warp..
One of the gas struts is slightly bent and not holding up as much as it was,Could this be doing it..If so are they the same as what are on the saab bonnets..Cheers..Mark

Slacken off the bonnet hinge bolts (13mm) and shift the bonnet over to align it if necessary with the lock or the other way. Also check the nuts are tight on the lock (13mm). The bonnet is easy to sort out but make sure you don't over-tighten the hinge bolts otherwise you'll have problems.
