After a fair fee thousand hard miles, randomly my bonnet decided to fly off on track yesterday.

Very luckily to cause in a couple of minutes delay and no injury.

Incredibly the damage is minor as it landed "softly" on the grass!

Anyway, currently using four rubber style large bonnet catches, would like to replace or upgrade.

Few suggestions here, no good with links, just copy and paste this into google; bonnet catch | coachfittings and body parts | Vintage Car Parts

just fitted aerocatch's to the combined bonnet and nosecone on our avon racer, quite expensive but cast iron safe and very positive action, highly recomend them

AeroCatch

Dzus of some sort, recessed or with knobs on.

I have just got some super new push/turn catches in, haven't even had time to get pics & put them on the Website yet. They are similar to Dzus, but smaller neater, lighter easier to fit & fasten & more secure, they will be retailing at £9.99ea
I shall be taking some to Stoneleigh if you're going, if of interest my no. is 07905 879407
