Just fixing my 206 and realised the bonnet latch wont allow me to fully close my bonnet. it close on the normal latch but not the one that fully locks it down. Any ideas???

Shut it u stupid little f**k, what's the point in posting in all my treads being such a c***? Least I can afford a gti180, and to get the cam belt done!

So apparently everyone knows my financial situation? If I wanted a 180 I would have bought a 180 simples Smile

Slam panel probably isn't straight.

You'll need to pull-out the whole bridge with a jig by the sound of it. Check the frame geometry while you're at it.

Did you ever fix this? Was the car in a crash? Mine was hit from the front and it broke one of the plastic prongs that holds the rad panel in place, so it was being pushed in from the bottom, so the bonnet wouldn't lock.

Being the picky sort - I really hate it when people say this. Yes we all know what it looks like - but we all want to see the condition that yours is in!
