Quick release bonnet catch

Does anyone use quick release push button clips to hold down the bonnet or boot? If so, what ones do you use?

I am looking to get some for the grp bonnet but some reviews say they are not really suitable for a bonnet.

These are the things im talking about




Any advice or should i try something else?

Thanks

i used them on my car, you can see them just in front of the mirrors below



these are the brackets i made



no problems at all in thousands of miles - they've never com undone and i think i prefer them to the aerocatches i used on the rear - much cheaper, smaller and easier to use.

hope that helps

Thanks for the replies chaps

I didnt even consider the fact my bonnet opens the other way so wont be at risk of flying open at speed.

I have bought a set and will get them fitted
