slanted bonnet

[furio_beno]

does anyone know how all the 106's had there bonnets like open about an inch at the top looked really good ? ive seen them but cant find them : ( any help much apprecited

[mallboy]

they are called bonnet raisers. a few people have fitted them to their saxos on here - will try and find them for you. they were also on ebay a while ago for £20

[Predator_R32]

its called bonnet jacking i believe, more to let hot air to escape, think all you do is make some spacers or use a load of washers and longer bolts on the hinges to get it looking higer at the back

[furio_beno]

heya cheers m8 ave seen em on e bay before just cant find em and think they look really good

[mallboy]

they were defo on ebay recently - they look like this but obviously for saxos:

they're on about the rear of the bonnet, if you lifted the front then air would get in under it whilst driving and rip it off :n:

[furio_beno]

link to your thread?

[furio_beno]

somebody said they used washers ? how and how many sizes etc ? thanks

[djmartin]

they are called these ok

bonnet lifters
bonnet raisers
bonnet jackers

its different names depending on what part of hte uk u are in ;)

there is someone on here selling some BUT he is on holiday now
i got a pair off him for £20

custom made
shaped out of solid aliminum blockes.

[Predator_R32]

up to you how many washers you use, depends how much you want it up, you will need longer bolts too

as martin said there just blocks of metal, like spacers, probablies could make some yourself

[furio_beno]

djmartin p can you get me the dimensions of the blocks i.e thickness height and width an how far apart the hole centres are ? many thanks

[Predator_R32]

just do a template off the hinges on the bonnet, obviously take the bonnet off and do it

[vtr130]

Take the bolts out the bonnet, got to local diy store, get some spacers and measure the lenght of thread that you need out the end of the spacer, buy the bolts and spacer buy it, and fit it ;)
