928 hood width?
Away from home for a few days, so can anyone please tell me width of hood at rear and at front?
Thinking of getting a hook on workshop light, and minimum width 1230mm. I know car width 1836mm, so maybe with our wide fenders the hood too narrow for attaching light (magnetic mount lights no good obviously!). Thanks for info

970 mm rear ... 800 mm front.
The weight of a light would be a factor as the hood is light, and hood struts are not able to take much extra weight without dropping, as a consequence of that.
Perhaps sling a wider light from the ceiling above, by a strap each side attaching to each end of the light just under the hood??

Thanks gentlemen - too narrow then!
In past using fluorescent light it has pulled hood down with weight. The light I had in mind is led so much lighter, but I would have used prop if too heavy. Back to lighting drawing board...
