Hi I just bought a BJ8 and I have no clue where the release latch is for the hood-- :shocked:


:savewave:

Hi they got two little chrome release levers for the hood
located on each side of the wind screen in side the car. :devilgrin: But if you try in to release the bonnet then Rich has put you straight.---Keoke-- :laugh:

Yep, a round ring under the glove box..... and dont slam the bonnet shut... Push with one hand in front of the chrome air scoop and one hand to the right side of the bonnet.
