Engine Lid Catch
The other day when removing my engine lid cover, one of the twist catches that release the lid on the top, bent and came away. It's the little piece of metal that attaches to the top and folds down out of the way. Anyone know if you can replace these, or know of a fix? I can't seem to bend it back in place, as the hole in the pin it fits into has worn away making it loose, if that makes sense?!

Drill right through the body and then the wire handle should squash up more, a mod everybody should do before they loose the catches while driving, if it still comes out a large keyring wont open up, buy them on ebay.

Thanks for the advice itchyfeet! That's a great suggestion. I'll get onto that.
