[TR] 1974 TR6 Bonnet Fit

[dave n]

I'm going to ask about "dropping the bonnet to close it."  I've owned my tr6 
for 12 years, and that's how I've always closed it.  and the bonnet fits 
just fine; always has.

how do you "let it down on the pins" and close it from there?  push hard on 
the center?

curious, and hoping to learn.

Here's my theory which could be completely bunk - the corners are too high,
rather than the middle being too low.  On both 4As I have owned, this was
the case due to people dropping the bonnet to close it, rather than letting
it down onto the pins.  You might try sighting down the edges and see if
there is any upward curvature from the front to back.
