weld an extension onto the bonnet striker, so it goes down an extra few inches behind the grill :)

Right mate on this is my guide it will show you all parts of my catch its basically a bit of wire that tucks under light so when u pull bonnet lever it goes onto first notch then u pull loop and hey presto bonnet opens.the pics are even labelled for you.Saves u cutting your grill and using bonnet pins.
