There are two rubber stoppers that screw into the top of the slam panel, you use these and the bonnet latches, there is a locknut that you spin down to allow adjustment on the latches, put a spanner through the spring to spin it, then the rubber stoppers give you the height of the bonnet and the catches are then adjusted with a slotted screwdriver in the pointed end so they latch when the bonnet is shut, it's just a matter of adjusting one and see what happens, it doesn't take much to get it sorted once all is lose and easy to move... |

Main dealers. A disgrace.

The job would have most likely been SC'd to a bodyshop, usually the one the insurance co. designates, the dealer would just be the customer interface. |

I only mentioned them because they are part of the laching efficiency and must be properly compressed to be efficient.
