  • When removing the clips, use a clip remover.
  • Make sure the bonnet opener cable is routed and connected properly.
  • Make sure the bonnet locks securely.
  • Make sure the bonnet opens properly.

Installation is the reverse of the removal procedure.

Alignment

  1. The bonnet hinges can be adjusted right and left as well as fore and aft by using the elongated holes.
  2. Turn the bonnet edge cushions as necessary, to make the bonnet fit flush with the body at front and side edges.
  3. Adjust the bonnet latch to obtain the correct height at the forward edge.

Note:

  • Before pulling out the bonnet opener cable, tie a string to the end of it so you can pull it back later.
  • Take care not to bend the bonnet opener cable.
