Not sure if this belongs here or in technical issues but after snapping my second bonnet release handle i decided to MacGyver it. I used part of a universal exhaust hanger and fashioned myself a nice little 'race style' alloy handle Works perfectly and looks great! What do you think?

i like that, i like the little things that you do to your own car, that others may not see or know about, but you know you have done it.

yer thats nice that

I'm all for the MacGyver approach.... And that looks really good.

Good to see tips, ideas and fixes.
Looks the job.

Looks good and will hopefully relieve the strain on the plastic handle

Not much left of the plastic handle T,
hence the new handle! I just don't know my own strength

Top job

Nice job James,
That'll confuse the average Joe looking to pop you bonnet for what ever reason

I wished i'd done that when i owned the fiat.. fiddling around to find the bare cable was a nightmare!!

Nice work Jame5

Just a suggestion; why not affix the metal bit to the plastic portion at a slight angle? So that it doesn’t slip off your hands when you’re pulling it…if you know what I mean.

Group buy!?

^ count me in, it will match my Sparco pedals

Linky There you go, now all you have to do is snap your old handle and bolt it on!

Cheers James will give it a bash!

Good effort James!
