How do you adjust the bonnet? The drivers side seems to be sitting a little high, looked around but cant see where I would be able to adjust....the gap gets better closer towards the windscreen.
Thanks

Re: bonnet adjustment
You need a mate to help you firstly.
Where the bonnet attaches to the font of the car there are 4 bolts on each side. These can be loosened and moved as the holes they bolt into are floating inside the bonnet panel. If its the height though, you can loosen the two larger bolts on the runners that are attached to the bonnet. These roll underneath the hook catches on either side of the engine bay. If you do undo these, only move them very slighty as you can move them too much which will put stress on the latch/opening mechanism.
Be careful when closing the bonnet after adjustments as it can rub on the egdes of the engine bay and take a nasty nick out of your paintwork
