ive closed them now. i had to get a pliar on the piston and slide that in manualy.

if i open them fully they lock open. ive a set on my saxo and subaru. both as old as each other. its the bloody saxo thats stick. both are kept outside and do regular road miles.

Just spray them with WD every couple of weeks. I'm on my second pair after breaking the first after they locked. I just spray every couple of weeks and have had no problems.

You guys go for a the locking ones and keep the bonnet release? Any pics of the install? do you pop rivet the bolt onto the slam panel and cut the bonnet?

RA Dunk

WoW!! Is that bit of stick sticking out actually a gun?
