Think they are 10mm, or 13mm.

Open bonnet, look at pivots, undo x2 bolts that attach the pivots to the bonnet on both sides. Off it comes.

Would advise having another person about to hold it.

Doing it up, just do it hand tight, no torque settings.

Mark on the underside of the bonnet the hinge outline.

Pull the washer jet hose away from the motor.

Undo the bolts that hold it onto the hinge.

Done.
