ok my dear guru friends.
i have a issue (mini related)

it has me stumped.

now here it is, i am doing a rover removeable front on my roundie.
but all the fixings are hdden, so to the naked eye, it looks normal.
i have a rover cooper grille, so no opening hole for the bonnet opening mechanism. i also have a rover bonnet which i have welded new hinges to to suit the morrie hinges..

so how can i open/ close my bonnet without hacking my grille.

internal release wont work, as ill have to remove my front at times. i dont want pins


its got me stumped

Use a short cable and pull the release from under the wheel arch or somewhere similar.

under the front bumper for that idea? save you having to reach up into the wheel arches into god knows what.

or in one of the air vents?

old gas cars used to have a diaphragm lift cable (Impco 300a) which does a mad job on the bosses rod for opening his boot. its just a chrome "T" under the car at the back. you can buy em new for $30 and would suit your application perfectly.
