ive got aero catches fitted to mine, IMO theyre the best looking catches out there, and mine are key lockable too so good against thieving scum, also means ive been able to get rid of the standard bonnet release etc.

In my opinion I’ve never liked them they just spoil the look of a nice bonnet.

Fitted mine when my bonnet catch caught on the IC, but least they got a function. Could be worse....e.g M3 mirrors

They serve a purpose, So nothing wrong with them. I had a bonnet come up on me due to a wanky Ford bonnet catch... Its cheaper, and easier to fit a bonnet pin, than a windscreen/bonnet/scuttle panel/dented roof
I did have pictures somewhere!
