Bonnet Gas Struts

[nibbles]

Lee - suppose priming and painting the exposed metal would fix that

any other probs with cutting?

all i mean its alot of work for not much gain

just had a look at mine - will have to trim a bit of the seal, but the struts should clear the metal. The two foam inserts will also have to go (or be trimmed down)

Will have to have a think about where water would run if these bits are taken out.

What's the part number for the Cordoba struts, and are they struts for the bonnet or boot?

I prefer the way this is mounted than to closer to the front scuttle.
