Looking all over the interweb to find out how to properly adjust the Mini Cooper hood/bonnet ,where it meets the cowl and rear of hood;there is supposed to be an approx. 4mm gap between the back edge of the bonnet and the scuttle panel. Anyone with information would be appreciated. Thanks...

 

Easiest way I've found is to take the wheels off, wheel liners off, headlights out, close the hood, loosen the four bolts holding the hood to the hood hinges, then loosen the four 10mm screws holding the front hood latches move the hood to desired location (may take the use of another buddy), and don't be shocked if it takes you a few hours to get it perfect. Once the hood is where you want it, lock every one down and open and close it a time or two to make sure everything jives and then put it back together.

 

Thanks for the helpful advice on the hood/bonnet adjustment. I also found where to access the 2-Torx head bolts behind the fender scuttles for hinges.

 

This was timely, I just swapped my hood and couldn't get it to latch. Kept thinking about the four star hood bolts, had forgotten that I can also relocate the latches.
Thanks guys
