Title: Aftermarket Hood Latch
Post by: Seabee1978126 on March 15, 2013, 09:46:21 AM

Does anybody here have a aftermarket type of hood latch on their 126? I am trying to get some ideas on this. I dont see many 126's where i am.. If you could post a pic, please do! Thanks!!

Why not use the ones they use at rally sports? You can see a example at the topic 'Does anyone know this car'. These are lots smaller then your big rubber ones shown here.

I was curious about this style because I bought them already. I buy all of my parts from one place and he sold these to me for only 5 euro. Now im trying to see if they would look good on my car. If not, ill just sell them to a 500 owner..
