Just the weight alone will keep it down up to 80 MPH.
Above 80 I use a bungee cord. Of course the unobtainium latch ears would
eliminate this problem.
Fiberglass bonnets will need a latch.

Robert D....the Triumph latches, also used on Heralds, would be my choice.
Nice chrome, look like they are meant to be there latches....or if you can
find a clapped out TR4, there is a latch in the center on the firewall.
Beware however on the TR4 latch, if the cable snaps, you may have to drill
holes in the firewall to unlatch it!
I don't know how complicated installing the Spitfire latches would be.
Probably take chuck 2-3 hours, and the rest of us a month.
