Having put all the front end of my 300tdi together I come to fit the bonnet and the catch doesn't line up ..
The slam panel needs to move forwards by about 7mm so that the bonnet catch/latch centralises in the hole. I can move the plate/hole but this is as far forwards as it can go and still needs more.
There are 2 x M8 bolts that hold this to the wing (each side)
My question is, how much movement is there here ?
Can I loosen these and pull it all forwards (?) by how much ?
I can't remember if the slam panel is slotted.
