Hello people

I know this has probably came up elsewhere on the site but i cant find it so any info would be good. Ive had my st since march and eversince i got it home Ive noticed the plastic pull thing to open the bonnet just wont stay hidden. Does anyone know why this happens and is there anything I can do to fix it?

i broke one when i was looking for a fez st
Can you push it so it's hidden? If so sound like the pivot could do with lubricating?

It was like that when I found it

I can push it back into place but its really loose and just slips back out when the engine is running. This may sound silly but it feels stretchy. I think I`ll just buy some plastic from hobbycraft get the dremmel out and make a new funky (smaller) one
