bonnet switch

I would like to fool the car into thinking the bonnet is closed when I have it open. I understand that wedging a screwdriver in should do the trick. Could someone please explain exactly where I need to shove it. With a picture if possible. Looked for obvious switches but no luck. FL2 Metropolis, Loire Blue, ebony/ivory

Sorry, indeed, I forgot to follow up with something that was actually useful. My bad.

Be a little careful poking around, the airbag trigger sensors are in that area as well. Near the top of the grill one at each end.

Thanks for the warning, I've sorted the issue I was trying to resolve (connecting Charger (Ctek) with the car locked so it powers down properly). Just fed the wires through he gap between the bonnet and wing and shut the bonnet properly. The Ctek comfort connector leads were not long enough to reach the depression below the wipers else I would have fed the connector to there (might extend the leads if I can be arsed Razz ).

Cheers everyone. FL2 Metropolis, Loire Blue, ebony/ivory
