I've done a lot of searching, but can't find anyone who sells 75 bonnet
cables.

Does anyone know if they're still likely to be available from main
dealers? - I know I don't, technically, need one for the MOT - but I
reckon any tester would be a tad pissed off at having to fiddle around
to pop the bonnet.
