Tein bonnet dampers

[H5]

Not sure if this is the right place.......

 

Anybody fitted these? Do they do the job properly?

[Guest prescience]

My recommendation is that you PM BigPhil specifically about this issue

How easy to fit, Phil? Any drilling?

[Beavis]

Somebody had these fitted at the Wrexham/Chester meet, but i cannot remember who it was. Anyhow they looked good and worked great.

Ten minute job to fit.

No drilling required the lifter come without any brackets for the fitting at the bonnet end so we make the specific brackets. The fitting at the wing involves the removal of a wing bolt and replace with the lifter fixing, couldn't be easier.

Over 50 of these kits fitted so far.

Will find out tommorow Adam, our supplier only makes stainless finish though.

thanks mate - I suppose I could ask my powdercoater to take care of it, or, perhaps paint the "body" portion silverstone when we paint my car

 

thanks again

Take it thats with the brackets you mention above? And do you have to cut a little out of the engine bay trim to fit it? Might add this to one of my cheap mods as I've been told I'm not allowed to spend lots of money before the house goes through, but I cant stop tinkering with the car

That looks neat - any tips?

[H5]

At a guess a new stanley blade?

[Chris`I]

Phil: You got PM regarding a set of these

 

Digsy: I'd guess a steady hand with a sharp blade, follwed by some sanding would do the trick

[H5]

I can see these becoming the new 'stubby aerial' mod....!!

If you look at the plastic you will see it is already marked out.

We use a Dremmel to cut it out but a blade will do the trick, the plastic is quite soft, easier to remove the panel to do it though, only held on with pop clips.

Look neat Dremel and a sharp chisel to tidy it up
