Digsy Posted August 5, 2007 Share Posted August 5, 2007 How easy to fit, Phil? Any drilling? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beavis Posted August 5, 2007 Share Posted August 5, 2007 Somebody had these fitted at the Wrexham/Chester meet, but i cannot remember who it was. Anyhow they looked good and worked great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigphil Posted August 5, 2007 Share Posted August 5, 2007 How easy to fit, Phil? Any drilling? 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.

Adam@Z1auto.com Posted August 5, 2007 Share Posted August 5, 2007 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 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris`I Posted August 5, 2007 Share Posted August 5, 2007 Stainless steel bonnet lifters £25 pair delivered. 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 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris`I Posted August 6, 2007 Share Posted August 6, 2007 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 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H5 Posted August 6, 2007 Author Share Posted August 6, 2007 I can see these becoming the new 'stubby aerial' mod....!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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.
