Wanted - bonnet gas strut fixings

andya · 27-04-20, 07:24 PM

As per title, does anyone have the brackets/fixings for gas bonnet struts as fitted to later UR's. I think the brackets are handed and am looking for both sides.

Thanks in advance

Hi Andy

Probably telling you how to suck eggs here, but....

Do you have the later bonnet with the relevant mounts like the one below ?

Just noticed that I seem to be missing one of the correct bonnet fixings -857823365 on my MB. It looks like it may have been lost in a previous long ago respray and then 'improvised' by the bodyshop.
If anybody has a spare one hanging around I would be interested, thanks.
