Basically it's getting rid of the cable and turning it into a swallowtail kind of bonnet latch that pokes through the grill
This is the only picture I have, and it looks as if they've simply welded it on there, would this actually work? If you have any advise please let me know!
Second picture is a real one.

- 1978 MK1 GL 2 door with 2.0 16v ABF, twin 40's, Recaros, lots of suspension mods. I'll get it back on the road one day.
- 1991 MK2 GTI 4 door. Was my daily doing over 1000 ks a week until it hit a truck. RIP. Got another one now and loving it!
- 1991 MK2 GTI 4 door for parts.
- 1998 Seat Cupra + another used as a donor for the MK1
- 1999 Passat Wagon. Needs street cred but at least it's a manual.
