I will try to find a link to the MGB bonnet release kits but in the meantime here is my take on the electric boot release.
I used an MG Motor boot release solenoid from Rimmers. (As used on the Chinese TFs apparently) It is made by Rockwell International
which gives me a bit more confidence in it's operation than the no-name ones in the E-bay kits. It is powered from one of the extra power points in the fuse box.
I used the one controlled by the ignition but it could also be wired to the always live terminal. I used a Rover 75 boot switch mounted on the driver's side footwell panel
next to the footwell light. It isn't visible from outside the car and is clear of the driver's knee.
Here are the bits I used. The part number for the solenoid is on the box.
The plug and wire on the solenoid isn't included. The one I used is from a Freelander engine harness.
