There's a strap just below the shoulder seatbelt on the passenger's side. Use it to wrap around a tap on the side of the hood...
Simple!

Am I misunderstanding or are you asking about how we keep the seat up when working on engine compartment? If so, there's a fabric loop attached to passenger side wall near top seatbelt piece. There's a clip on the seat that the loop holds when you raise the seat, this keeps the seat up.

Cheers
Tom

Hey Kidwrecked
What are you trying to hold up. I see you're on line now. I'll wait for a reply.

Oh! Hicks has too many mosquitoes and goose shit on the beach. Allouette is hard to get into and a rat race to leave. Othello tunnels campground is okay for overnight, and the parking lot good for a few hours. I don't know Chilliwack lake but would be game for that.

Talk to me.

For those who haven't dared ask, or who prefer photos to words, an earlier thread also covered this: http://www.delica.ca/forum/how-to-prop- ... tml#p14642

Actually, this little "feature" of the Delica is a test of the Delica forum emergency system. If you can't raise the hood, you can't keep a Delica :-P
