Mark 3 style hood for Mark 2.
Fitted 08/09 May 2008
Finished article looks fantastic a perfect fit. Peter at Mazmania was superb. A great service.
A couple of things which caught me out:-
1. Rear rain rail is different to the Mark 1 in the DVD. I removed the plastic rail completely with the hood this apparently can risk damage to the rail and I believe by drilling / grinding off the rivets insitu the rain rail can be left in place.
2. Take care when removing the old hood from the front listing rail to observe how it fits this had me puzzled for a while. Note the hood lining only connects to the front rail on a Mark 2. Do this operation before fixing the tension wires.
3. I riveted the two lower hood fixing points early in the sequence I think this is slightly different to a Mark 1
Peter, I suggest it might be worthwhile making a specific DVD for a Mark 2
REPLY: Well done Mark! Mk1 & Mk2 Rain Rails are IDENTICAL (the same part number) Mk2.5\'s have the one-piece Rain Rail which is a direct replacement.
MazMania hoods are manufactured to fit both Mk1 & Mk2 frames to allow for the minimal difference in the rivet holes, at the bottom of the \'B\' pillar
1st time anyone has requested a specific Mk2 video - will edit accordingly.
