M15 VW 0 Posted June 18, 2004 Fitted the new slam panel today, and shut the bonnet. YAY! :D Oh, wheres the bonnet pull supposed to be cause I cant see it :x If it isnt there I asume the 2 metal bars behind the headlights need pulling but in which direction and from where? thanx Nikki Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Phil K 0 Posted June 18, 2004 Bonnet release is a smallish lever on the right hand side of the drivers footwell... well at least it should be :? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
M15 VW 0 Posted June 18, 2004 hmm doesnt seem to be there :( How do i open it without it ? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ben16v 0 Posted June 18, 2004 purely a guess.... but if you can find the bonnet release wire in that area under the dash in the drivers footwell, grap it with a pair of mole grips and give it a tug!!! :oops: :shock: ouch! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Storm 0 Posted June 18, 2004 err I think Mr breaker took it off and probably removed the cable too. Do a search for bonnet release cable and you will find numerous threads on this. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
M15 VW 0 Posted June 19, 2004 right, we managed to open the bonnet but now need a bonnet cable and release handle, anyone? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kevin Bacon 5 Posted June 19, 2004 The bowden cable is dirt cheap from VW and you'll struggle getting a handle s/hand, so may need a new handle from dub ya too. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Storm 0 Posted June 19, 2004 I've got one but you can buy it cheaper elsewhere. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
