Its very simple, at the rear of the bonnet (near the windscreen) there is a hinge on each side of the bonnet. These are secured to the bonnet and the car by 10mm bolts. Simply undo the bolts (get someone to support the bonnet), disconnect the washer jet piping, and remove the bonnet. Hope that helps, Alan

Is the headlight loose as a result?
