Replacing the Rear Bonnet Lock

Model: Alfa Romeo Mito MK 1 - Years 2008-2018
Part: Body

To replace the rear bonnet lock, open the tailgate, remove the trim panel, and access the lock housing: then disconnect the opening mechanism linked to the lock itself and remove the clip that secures the lock to the tailgate to extract it; insert the new lock, ensuring the gasket is correctly positioned, and secure it by reinserting the clip; once the new lock is fitted, connect the opening mechanism and check its proper operation before refitting the panel.
