Forum:
I'm getting brave posting my own topic now! Honest, I've searched and everything first so very sorry if this has been covered.
My bonnet catch mechanism is dead. Struggling to find a replacement on ebay. Is it fair to assume its a Yaris part?
Can you elaborate further on
Can you elaborate further on what you mean by the bonnet catch mechanism? Are you talking about the actual pull lever inside of the cabin not working correctly to open the bonnet? Or the entire catch is broken and doesn't hold the bonnet down?

gladly...
The bit under the bonnet. It holds the bonnet in place in the position it should be at when you've pulled the cable inside. The rivet/hinged bit is all loose and wobbly.
My technical word play is exemplary!
A mark 1 or 2 sirion catch maybe the way to go
As Bob the Mod (Bobf)
as said, maybe worth also looking at getting one off a daihatsu sirion.
There is an ebay seller called 'patch2spots' who breaks Daihatsu sirions. Maybe worth contacting him to see if he has a bonnet catch for sale.
Over to Bob to provide the contact number
