I had them on my fiesta cause the bonnet wouldn't shut with the big induction pipe. I've flattened the pipe now and removed the raisers cause I don't like the look of them...........and the amount of people that come up to me and said your bonnets open (even though it doesnt open from that end) :shrug:

if i get a chance i will do it saterday whilst im doing my rocker cover gasget
i like it and have actually semi done it but you wouldnt notice, i have put 2 washers under each of the bolts but it did have a reason (at the time) but i couldnt be bothered to remove them lol
what size are the bolts? i will get 4 longer ones tomora and use more washers, it wont be a perm thing but will do it for the pics, might stay though

just bin and had a look, mine are only about 30mm and pretty flush on the underside so you would need some brand new shiny ones :)
