Bonnet Release Cable Connector Location
A trivial issue but it’s bugging me!

The plastic connector box where the two separate bonnet release cables are joined is floating freely above the wheel arch liner, but I can see it has two locating pegs underneath that I presume allow it to be clipped in somewhere - I can’t see any suitable holes in the arch liner close to where it must go.

Related, not sure if it’s currently installed with the correct routing, e.g. around the arch liner to wing bracket.

Any help appreciated Thumbs Up

I think that they all float, I've certainly never seen one that was attached to anything. I suspect that LR bought in a COTS part that has provision for mounting and simply ignored the mounting clips.

I had the same question, as I know that in my Defenders' past, it had the complete right mudguard replaced. So was wondering if everything was 'factory' correct. Thanks for the info. 1988 90 Hard Top, 19J Diesel Turbo, Shire Blue - Restoration ongoing
