I remember vaguely a mod that someone in the TSSC did a few years ago, it
involved opening the door, drilling 2 holes and inserting a small u-bolt around
something, can't remember what(I'll try and find out) so that the bonnet
couldn't be opened without first opening the door, removing said u-bolt then  
opening the catches and lifting bonnet.  It may have been that the 2 holes were
drilled, one into the bracket that holds the rubber cone and the other into 
bracket that the cone drops into, so the u-bolt linked these two together.

Does that make any sense, or does is all sound like shite??? :-)
