someone on here used a set of boot lifters IIRC, but i cant remember who....
yeah someone in the bravo/a section did it using boot lifters, i'm still surprised they could lift the bonnet but it worked.
my car has bonnet lifters factory fitted, alfa knew you'd be in the engine bay often enough to make it a worth while addition.

I did. And they work just fine. All you need is a set of bolts with ball heads. They have to be short enough to fit between the bonnet and the side wing.
I got a set of bolts for a Cinq and shortened/rethreaded them to fit but I am pretty sure there are other options.

Hello had the same idea about bonnet lifter.Went to ebay and bought a set for the punto.They've now been on my bravo for 2 1/2 weeks with no problems.By the way I emailed them first and they told me the lifters woul'nt fit a bravo.The lifters are by INNX and are easy to find.I paid a tenner plus five post,altogether a good deal.
i had some of them on mine lasted a few months and started to wear and then wasn't strong enough to hold the bonnet up they got thrown in the bin

i'm back! it was very eventful, we got through less that half the agenda and no one cried.
j1ppers you're allowed to repost the same thing in the same thread as long as it is less than twice a week. yes i made that rule up myself, but i am the master of all so what i say goes and you will obey me damn it.
i fitted used a bravo boot lifter as a bonnet lifter. worked perfectly!
remember to use a bravO lifter as bravA ones are much too long and you only use one lifter as you cant fit two under the bonnet. dont buy an INXX kit they dont lift the bonnet high enough and are just flimsy.
you will also need a bolt with a ball on the end (as supplied in the INXX kit)
