Quicky Question.

Do they just pop on/off with a bit of force?

Or do they connect another way.

On a new age mini if it matters!?

no no

I was fitting some PIAA driving lamps & managed to drop a spanner down the double skin (structural part) of the bonnet.

Had to whip the bonnet off to fish it out! Doh :S
