Re: Bonnet Fastening

[mark krawczuk]

hi, yes they are the ones....   looks like  the recess is  moulded into the bonnet, but  i am pretty  sure that there are some about that, u cut hole out, then put a  little recessed cover in the hole to pretty the   hole in the bonnet,     a friend of mine had some  bonnet pins that where flat  and actually had a tube  type key to unlock it, similair  key to game machines etc... mark k From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, March 29, 2004 7:07 PM Subject: Re: Bonnet Fastening They are recessed into the bonnet. http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2469856749&category=32552 http://www.fordgallery.com/uploads/17332/10001.jpg   http://www.fordgallery.com/uploads/17332/10003.jpg   Not the best pics, but are they the ones you are talking about?   ----- Original Message ----- From: mark krawczuk To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, March 29, 2004 10:39 AM Subject: Re: Bonnet Fastening hi, u can get the  pin type bonnet pins, and u can get ones  like on the  fords, sorta flat mounting type where u push`n` tturn.   mark k ----- Original Message ----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, March 29, 2004 9:24 AM Subject: Re: Bonnet Fastening I had a look at the RTA website and only "forwards facing" ornaments and protrusions are illegal. Items such as spotlight mounts on bullbars, fishing racks, etc must be removed when they are finished with. But I couldn't find anything on "bonnet pins" as such.   Now in some classes of racing it is mandatory to install bonnet pins as a secondary method of bonnet fastening, and in the same class of racing you must also be road registered. I think it's an "IFFY" kind of situation and its borderline legal.   You are right though, but think that anybody who is hit by a car is gunna be more worried about their broken legs than a cut on their chest.   ----- Original Message ----- From: Jeff Oldham To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, March 29, 2004 8:29 AM Subject: RE: Bonnet Fastening mate as far as i know you cant use bonnet pins legally. its cause when you hit a pedestrian it cuts them up (i said when not if :)) thats why they got rid of hood ornaments   Jeff "When i die i want to go quietly in my sleep like my grandfather, not shouting and screaming like his passenger..... -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]On Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Sunday, March 28, 2004 8:57 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Bonnet Fastening   Anyone know the legalities of using bonnet pins on a road registered car in NSW?   My problem is I got an intercooler in the way and had to take the bonnect latch off.   What other legal ways are there to hold the bonnet down??? --membersozdat------------------------------------------------------- OZDAT Mailing List Please Note:- Send (un)subscribe requests to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Send submissions to [EMAIL PROTECTED] No unauthorised redistribution of this email http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/index.htm http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/listindex.html http://www.mail-archive.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/ --------------------------------------------------------------------- --membersozdat------------------------------------------------------- OZDAT Mailing List Please Note:- Send (un)subscribe requests to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Send submissions to [EMAIL PROTECTED] No unauthorised redistribution of this email http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/index.htm http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/listindex.html http://www.mail-archive.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/ --------------------------------------------------------------------- --membersozdat------------------------------------------------------- OZDAT Mailing List Please Note:- Send (un)subscribe requests to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Send submissions to [EMAIL PROTECTED] No unauthorised redistribution of this email http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/index.htm http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/listindex.html http://www.mail-archive.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/ --------------------------------------------------------------------- --membersozdat------------------------------------------------------- OZDAT Mailing List Please Note:- Send (un)subscribe requests to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Send submissions to [EMAIL PROTECTED] No unauthorised redistribution of this email http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/index.htm http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/listindex.html http://www.mail-archive.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/ --------------------------------------------------------------------- --membersozdat------------------------------------------------------- OZDAT Mailing List Please Note:- Send (un)subscribe requests to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Send submissions to [EMAIL PROTECTED] No unauthorised redistribution of this email http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/index.htm http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/listindex.html http://www.mail-archive.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/ --------------------------------------------------------------------- --membersozdat------------------------------------------------------- OZDAT Mailing List Please Note:- Send (un)subscribe requests to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Send submissions to [EMAIL PROTECTED] No unauthorised redistribution of this email http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/index.htm http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/listindex.html http://www.mail-archive.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------
