Can't remember where I got mine.

After having my bonnet getting intimate with the windscreen I kinda felt them to be a good investment.

Thrush ive only driven my RS about 5 miles before i completely stripped the thing the bonnet seemed a bit wobbly when i done those few miles, so i thought it'd be a good idea to have them also heard loads of stories like the one you just mentioned!!
