i did'nt want to put any holes in the bonnet so -
one end of the strap is fixed to the underside of the bonnet lip and the other side fixed to the bit under the bonnet and goes in to the engine bay and out throw the top grill slat
if that makes sence or i will take some pics

Rivets?
The only problem I have with springs is I can see them rubbing on the curve of the bonnet...
