Hi, going to be fitting bonnet pins to my car and wondered if its possible to remove not only just the redundant bonnet catch but the frame/pillar it mounts to as well? know that it probably helps keep everything stiff at the front of the car, but just wondered if its been done before or whether its a bad idea?

cheers

Keep it....can't have too much security.

I left de lockplate off my car (behind the intercooler) and put the Aerocatches just above the headlamps in the holes that are in the plate above the rad. Works a treat :thumbsup: and saves some weight to remove the std bonnetlock and cable mechanism

good point about the security! will probably leave it as it is then at the moment. Do want to save weight which is why i wanted to remove the hole thing including the metal brace that the bonnet catch mounts onto but think this will reduce the stiffness of the front end.
