Hi,
I'm a newbie - will post pics of my car soon - but have a question. My car is missing the 'spring' that causes the engine compartment lid to pop and stay up. I have to pull the nob and then lift the lid and prop it. Does anyone have a part number for this so I can track one down? Many thanks Chris |

You probable need the plastic brackets the hold the bars in place. |
