Sorry Bob
Yesterday I "helped" Bob to instally the hood latch on his Met. After a few minutes of wiggling the hood and latch around, the hood still wasn't quite catching. So I brilliantly suggested that perhaps it just needed a little brute force. Bob then pushed down on the hood a little bit harder, and it caught. We both then shared the interesting experience of thinking "oh hey, that's good...no wait, that might not be so good". Now the hood is stuck closed, probably owing to a slight misalignment of the hood and the latch. Sorry Bob.

I did get it moving again. Turns out we just weren't paying attention. There was a bolt and a bit of bent metal sticking out and the hood latched on that. The mechanism never actually engaged. All is well now, adjusted and working.
Success! I have now witnessed the wonder that is zlog's working hood latch. It now makes a most satisfying thunk sound when catching and unlatching.
