Hey All,
Finally had a chance to install the bonnet struts, I installed them with the struts on the bottom position.....and initial thoughts I must say what a relief of not having a piece of metal bar in your face any longer....
down side is I keep knocking / hitting the struts when working on the sides of the engine bay...oh well...cant win them all....Just quickly though...I just would like to comment on something I picked up on with the other guys installing there struts? please correct me if i'm wrong on the following: -
I noticed that on the pictures that hamish_023 and Yindustries posted it seems they have installed the ball joint hood bracket incorrectly? dont know if many of you have done this also? IF I'M RIGHT!?
If you look at them before installing....it states on the bracket "HOOD" which to my understanding means this is the face that sits up against the bonnet hood and then you have "L" or "R" in which i interpreted as if your facing the front of the car L or R......now i dont know what implications this has but it's something I just noticed.....so once again please correct me if i'm wrong? If you dont know what I'm talking about...look at my installation compared to hamish_23....
feedback and comments please!
Thanks!
