    Hi Jonathan...thanks for replying. It's the Caterham one....so Oxford/Thunder etc. I can't take a pic of mine as I'm away...but I've stolen a pic from CTRMint's blog... His hood stick arrangement looks different from mine...mine's a new 360R SV (I'm still building it)and that bit of the inner hood stick comes down on top of that bolt. Thus the extra height caused by the half hoot 'loop' means the sticks don't fold down completely. My hood sticks came installed from the factory...I'm beginning to suspect they're not right in their placement... Cheers, J.

    Hi All - hope you're enjoying your weekends 🙂 So I recently did the sensible thing and ordered a half hood for my 360R SV...trouble is, having fitted the side straps to the bolt described in the instructions (roll bar top bolt I think) the hood sticks no longer sit flush enough to easily re-attach the boot cover. The hood sticks are slightly raised now because the bolt they rest on at the roll bar end is higher due to the half hood strap now also being on the thread. I thought you could retain those to leave the option of half hood or full hood. I don't really want to remove the hood sticks and loose that option. Is this normal? Or have I done something wrong? Or is it a known thing, hopefully with a fix? Thanks all, J.

    Ok many thanks for all the replies. I guessed it might be the tonneau or something like that, but didn't realise that the full hood has a popper position aligned with that one. I'll check it again with my full hood...thanks again 🙂

    Hi All - I'm still in build phase, although making good progress at last. I'm going to fit the carbon bow tube protectors while I haven't put the seats in yet. I was ready a very useful blog about the fitment (thanks CTRMint https://www.caterham7diaries.com/post/caterham-cars-carbon-bow-protectors) and it shows him drilling the extra hole for putting this external popper/stud on once the new protector was in place. What's that popper for? It doesn't seem to be for the doors, which fasten on a popper inside. Probably a really daft newbie question! 😉 Thanks, J.
