[Healeys] Bonnet/Hood Latch position

[Simon Lachlan]

Hard to get a tape or whatever in there, but mine are, on average, 3/4in
from the top of the bit of metal into which they are drilled. On average?
Now that I look very closely, mine aren't exactly level!
Take a number of measurements from the group and make your own average?

Team.
I have done my penance and searched the archive for a post that featured not
so long ago.  As usual I came up empty and therefore seek your guidance. The
bonnet latching mechanism is mounted on a bracket held with two screws to
the front panel at the top of the cross-brace.  During the chassis
restoration of my BN4 the top panel was replaced and it doesn't have the
holes or captive nuts in place to fix the bracket to.  Can someone advise
(remind me) how far down the screw holes should be?

Many thanks
