Waldi Posted August 1, 2020 Report Share Posted August 1, 2020 Hi Graham, I was not clear, the fumes are petrol fumes that escape from the fuel system in the boot, so its not the exhaust fumes I was referring to. I had hoped with all new hoses there would be no smell at all, not so. I installed a new boot seal with the opening at the front (near the gas tank), it closes up nicely, not glued together (yet). Cheers, Waldi Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Rob Y Posted August 9, 2020 Report Share Posted August 9, 2020 Or make your own! Found the basic idea online but designed my own brackets that fit behind the fixing for the hood to the side of the car. M10 threaded bar from bracket to deflector, so fully height adjustable. It's easily removable (no tools needed) and hood will go up with it in place. Cost just over £100 and wife happy with the result!

Waldi Posted August 9, 2020 Report Share Posted August 9, 2020 Nice brackets, as they support on the wheel arch too. Waldi Quote Link to post Share on other sites
