    Default Aerocatch Bonnet Pins

    Any one fitted a set of the aerocatch bonnet pins to their 86 yet?

    Going to get a set in the next couple days and just wanna see how and where you installed em so I avoid ballsing it up and needing a new bonnet.

    For those playing at home these are the catches I'm looking at, they are available in both locking and non-locking as well as a few different colours, main reason i like these is they aren't defectable like most bonnet pins out there as they are flush mount so they don't slice some one up if you hit them.

    Make sure you place them towards the outside, that hole which is between where my pin is mounted and the radiator clamp is right under the ridgeline in the bonnet.

    yeah man i have they are a bitch!, only suggestion i can give is when cutting the bonnet use two hole saws to cut the ends and an angle grinder to cut the straight edges. then file the rest to untill they slip in...
