| Bonnet Lifters Did AAT ever sort out the supply of gas strut bonnet lifter kits for the Octy or is Milotec still the best option?

| AAT never supplied them (or provided a refund for many people). There was some talk of arranging a group buy from Milotec , but nothing has surfaced yet,

| IIRC ones from a SEAT Leon fit  I think Pikey Des (delcac) fitted one to his. Might be worth a PM......

| Have a word with Chris Ellis (on here somewhere), I'm sure he said that his company could sort out bonnet lifters for anyone interested. However, Chris if I'm mistaken then I do beg your pardon!!!! Lee

| Still a ****  | If you lot are really interseted in these I can order the original ones off Seat/VW or I know a man, nudge nudge etc. These are the ones with a small bracket that screws to the strut and cost about £37ish AIR for the kit. If you have a strut brace fitted it gets in the way.
