Thanks all. I want to get away from external clutter, otherwise the rubber ones would be perfect.
The issue is the sensible point of attachment is OVER a frame tube, so the Panex wouldnt work.
Mike's bonnet catches would if they went through the frame, in which case they feel too big. They would also be encumbered by a lock nut on the top of the lower panel as well as behind the tube.
Perhaps I can devise something smaller diameter which just has a thin 'head' to it under the eye, so it can just be fastened/locked from a nut to the rear. If there are two either side, 4 total, the bonnet pin spec could be reduced a bit??
If not, these perhaps are the smallest.. https://www.carbuilder.com/uk/stainless-...-fasteners
