Hello John,

Might be best if you PM a Mod for the directions.

May be worth giving your location as there may be a member close who can help.

Thanks chaps. I persevered and managed to release the bonnet by releasing the cable from its lever assembly and pulling it with pliers. I think I'll get a new one! However, I'll take your advice and contact a mod. for future event - just in case!
