:( Just opened my 944 bonnet to give her the once over and tried to close it and found the catch spring has snapped and rusted away. Anyone have ideas how I can lock it temporarily or where I can find a new spring asap? Stuck at home until I can get it sorted.

Thanks for your help in advance.

Mike

No worries, went to the local garage and begged for a similar spring. Had to modify it a bit but at least it locks the bonnet down for now :D

Glad you managed to fix it. Welcome to the forums.
