Video tutorial

In this video, you will learn how to install the two front supports in the hood of the Chevrolet Optra. Not all supports are compatible with the Chevrolet Optra.

However, with a bit of patience and good will, you can find two front supports that fit well for this model by searching at a junkyard. Once found, insert them into the two slots located at the ends of the engine on top. Thread them into the two holes and try to lower the hood to see if it fits well with the supports and the latch.

If everything is aligned, proceed to secure the supports with the bolts.
