This morning I had my bonnet open and closed it in the normal fashion and was driving a few places for work, I got to a car park and after getting out I noticed my bonet release catch has snapped ie the one that protrudes from the grill. I have read about this before but cant find it for love...
Im gonna buy a catch can in the near future.
Was just wondering which ones everyone had gone for, they all look like they do the same job really.
Are there any to avoid or go for ? Ive been looking at the ebay ones, looks like i can get one for around £40.
I think ive got the idea of how it...

About six months ago i fitted the oil catch tank and today i thought i would have a look.
:-o what is all that crud, if i had not got a catch tank this would be in the pipes and intercoolers and its only after six months. All i can say is look at the pic's and go and buy one.
Oh...
Sometimes when I close the bonnet on my 1.4 the catch won't work, and it's just held closed by the little release lever under the lip of the bonnet.
It only seems to happen when the engine is hot, so I think that the metal is expanding which makes the catch stick.
Is this a common problem...

Hey guys wondering if could get some one to maybe post a pic of there bonnet catch as mines not working.
The bonet closes properly but wont catch and you can just lift the bonnect up and flick the catch and its open.

Does anybody know how to remove the mechanism for the catch holding the rear seat backs up on a mk1 leon.
One of the plastic tabs that attach the handle to the catch has broken on mine. Can the handle and mechanism be pulled out without pulling the seats apart?
