Hi, I am planning to mount my fuel filter and expansion bottle on my wing but as it is all in pieces I don't know if my original (1988) wing bracket and bonnet prop will be suitable.
Is there a different prop on 300Tdi with filter and bottle on wing?
Cheers
 
Any chance of a photo? I see there is one on eBay but don't know what else I would need to fit it.
 
Surely the 300TDi prop is fixed to the bonnet and when stored fits into a clip on the underside of the bonnet frame (see photos one & two)???

When I removed my old bonnet and fitted a new Puma one last year I had to buy the later prop & brackets and it is with these that the new prop folds across in-line with the radiator frame (see photos three, four & five). I stand to be corrected but is this not the set-up since the TD5?
Note:- I disliked the standard plastic-clip that secures the prop in the folded position and replaced it with one off a Freelander, seems to do the job much better.





 
I have run into issue with the latch (later latch, early bonnet) so while searching I found the strut lift kit and will be fitting one of those.
Nice engine bay.
