On the latch mechanism for the hood (the front) you have to remove 2 of the bolts that hold the plastic cover on. Once you do you will see 2 springs. Shorten the smaller one 1 loop. Make sure the loop on the hood (bonnet) falls right into the center of the latch without rubbing either side. On many cars I have seen where it has just about worn right through from rubbing. You adjust it side-to-side on the hood by loosening the 4 small bolts. You adjust up and down by loosening the latch on the body. I would add an extra "emergency" cable so if the main one should break you can still open the hood.
