Hood latch restoration

Post by Jamesgofast » Mon May 23, 2022 9:33 pm

Hi guys,

After removing my front bumper to get at the front brace bar, as well as the bolts holding it in place being badly corroded, I noticed the hood latch beneath the cover is also rusted quite badly so was thinking this weekend to remove it and give it some rust treatment and paint.

I've done a search for guide on how to break the mechanism down but came up with nothing.

Is it a pretty straight forward job?

Cheers
