my bonnet prop catch-the one attatched to the underside of the bonnet,is loose.i must confess its been loose scince i got the car 18 months ago,but getting worse.its like a loose tooth,but has never fallen off yet.how is it fixed to the bonnet?i cant see beyond the heat reflective protection surrounding it.is it an easy fix?or will it just come loose again quickly.do i just leave it as it is because 'tadts'? its sunday and im bored,so i fancy improving the situation if im not going to open up a can of worms!

Think it was around £35-£40 Pete.

I also have the Glove box Kit which is a Top bit of kit. It locks with the central locking and has push to open/shut mechanism and an interior light too .
