Whats the handle in dashbox for on the superbug? LOOKS LIKE IT HAS SOMETHING TO DO WITH THE BONNET BUT CANT SEE HOW. ONLY NOTICED IT TODAY?

theres a lever beside the drivers knee, that one releases the fuel door and the one in the glove box pops the hood :tu:

I was right then. Dont think I will bother to hook it up as it seems a bit unnecesary and I would imagine judging by my ladies bag impossible to get to

which one is it fuel door or hood?

the hood one if its disconnected and your hood locks you wont get it open again wihtout cutting the handle off

Its hood I think, the fuel pull is fine, but dash one dont seem to work anyway. But hood opens manually fine.

those are a bastard when they start playing up
i had a small bit of timber that used to hold the lever in my 71super to get the hood open :lol:

when you shut the hood the first click is just holding by the release button the push it down further locks it

same deal as a mainstream car bonnet
