307e Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 Got a set of these to fit........ how do they fit? Anyone got a photo of them fitted (both inside and outside of bonnet). I guess they are supposed to stop the catches going outwards; but....well I don't know TBH!!Any help please!!Cheers,Steve. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul Garvey Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 Sorry - fitting to above the catch is more an option Spitfire/GT6 as don't have the 'formed' line in the guard Herald's do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bxbodger Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 Mine are fitted above the catches- there is enough room below the swage line, here's a pic from the inside which may make it clearer how they work-As you turn the key, the plate turns, covers the top of the lever, and prevent the lever being pulled out by mr thief.

Dogsbody47uk Posted August 22, 2014 Share Posted August 22, 2014 The Canley instructions are fine, but make sure you start wth a pilot hole, then file it out to size ensuring that the hole sides are flat to match the lock barrel so that the lock itself cannot turn in the hole.
