Has anyone used any of these with a saturn bonnet? If so have you used the flush fit or exterior mounted ones?

I was planning on using the locking ones but not sure about IVA?

According to IVA, if the projection sticks out less than 5mm then the edges need to be blunted. According to the aerocatch drawing - http://www.aerocatch.com/updoc/Tech_Spec_plus_flush_dims.pdf if you use the ones that mount externally then they only stick out 2.5mm so should be ok.

The flush mount ones need a bonding plate so the bonnet would need to be less than 2.5mm thick.

I pesonally think the top mounted ones would look better, but I think you need 2 sets to secure the bonnet properly?

I have been looking for an alternitive the the rubber things, they look awful

I bought a set of the flush but havnt fitted them yet. Bro in law bought a set of plus flush for his mini boot but they don't look as good ( he's not as precise as me)

The Westfield kit uses a pin to locate the front so you only need a pair.
