@@shedlock2000 Sure, look where the hinges are on the side of the bonnet, there is a small “Clip” and a “knob”. It will rotate through 90 degrees, there should be one on both side, pop the struts at the body end, and the entire bonnet will lift back, and you can ease the “CLIP” into the “knob” Hope that makes sense, go have a look on the hinge, you should see what I mean. You might need to WD-40 the bracket as if it’s not been used, it will likely be stuck.
I do understand what you mean! Thanks - I’ve never looked closely because I’ve never had the bonnet be in the way… yet! Thank you for the info, I’m sure that’ll come in very useful at some point! How does this help you remove the battery? I’m assuming that you still have to pull or lift the wiper cowl?
@@shedlock2000 nope. When in access, lift the battery up and pull towards you. Never taken the cowl off Honestly, it’s easy once the bonnet is vertical.
That’s excellent information! Thank you! The cowl is a nightmare to pull and then needs re-sealing, so it’s good to know the battery can be removed without pulling it.
