Product Description
The Arrowhead Bonnet Catch Lower is a crucial component in your Volkswagen's bonnet locking system, ensuring the bonnet stays securely fastened while driving. This metal latch mechanism is designed for reliable engagement and easy release, providing peace of mind that your bonnet will remain safely closed until you need access. It features a robust construction with multiple mounting points and an integrated spring for smooth operation.
This part is specifically compatible with select Volkswagen models, including the Golf V and Jetta V.
