stormseeker 0 Posted January 12, 2004 The bonnet earth is only for EMI/EMC compliance - if you can be arsed put it back on, but it's not major! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kevin Bacon 5 Posted January 12, 2004 As stormseeker says, it's just there to keep electrical noise under the bonnet and not upset TV and Radio receivers as you drive past. It's not an MOT requirement so just pull the remains off and leave it off! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
