Bonnet Hinge Wires
Who would be interested in one of these.
It replaces the standard wire that is on the hinge. When I rung up Renault to get one they guy said £22 so I promptly thought why don't I make some up.
Anyway I initially done these by just crimping them and the weight of the bonnet pulled them through so this is version 2. I have fusion welded the wire to create a blob so they don’t pull through. Have tested the length on my car and it does hit anything and also support the weight of the bonnet very well. I have ordered some slightly different crimps more suitable for the wire size so the crimp doesn’t look as squashed.
The beauty of this aswell is that you can use an M5 nut and bolt to remove it so you don't have to leave your slam panel attached if you want to remove you bonnet and hinges (so you don't have to realign).
Thinking that I can provide this as a kit ready to fit using m5 bolts, 2 locking nuts and 4 washers. Let me know if you are more interested in the kit idea so you don't have to worry about sourcing bits.
Currently looking for £5 posted for the wire providing I can get away with using a stamp, I need to check.
If I supply the nuts, washers and bolts too it will be a little more.
Thanks Dan
