Hood Hinge guides
1.5x5mm screws (MD10)
Left Hinge Bracket
Left Hinge

1.5x4mm screws (MD09)
Hinge Springs
2.3x3mm screws (MP03)
Right Hinge Bracket
Right Hinge
2.3x4mm screws (MD12)

Tip:- You may find the use of a 1.4mm tap through the four hood screw holes will make assembly of the hinges run more smoothly.

Retrieve the hood provided with Stage 4, and place it upside down. Take one of the hinge guides and hinge guides and hold it against the screw hold on the hood. Secure the hinge guide to the hood with a 1.5 x 4mm (MD10) screw.

Now fit the left hinge onto the pin of the left hinge bracke, securing the parts with a 1.5 x 4mm (MP10) screw.

Hold the hinge assembly and insert the angled projection on the hinge bracket into the hole in the guide. Secure the hinge to the hood with 1.5 x 4mm (MD09) screw, and the angled projection to the guide with a 1.5 x 4mm screws (MP10) screw.

Hook one end of one of the hinge springs over the end of the perpendicular section of the hinge, into the notch. Then place the other end of the spring onto the post of the hinge bracket and secure with a 2.3 x 3mm (MP03) screw.

Now assemble the right hinge as you did with the previous one.

Place the body upside down, and pass the hinges up into the space at the front, by holding the hood at an angle.

Turn the hood so that it is aligned properly with the body, then push it back, so that the hinge brackets are aligned with the holes.

Position one of the brackets so that the two holes align with the corresponding ones in the hood, then secure the bracket with two 2.3 x 4mm screws (MD12)

Now secure the other bracket to the other wing with the remaining two 2.3 x 4mm screws (MD12).

Carefully check that the hood opens and closes cleanly and smoothly.

Issue complete, carefully store any remaining parts in an issue labelled bag.

Now insert the free LEDs, held in place by the bracket, into the holes in the central support, and through to the central lights. Pass the other end of the cables back along the inside of the wings. Position the cables flat and fix them with the tabs.

Retrieve the hood plates, and push the two pins on the underside into the two outer holes in the depression of the hood. Repeat on the other side of the hood. Close the hood. The pins should protrude through the holes in the centre of the plates.

Open the hood and insert the cable end of the locking pins into the small hole in the brackets. Fold the end of the cable over to secure it. Repeat on the other side.

Close the hood, and insert the locking pin into the hole in the pin projecting through the plate.
