Jim S Posted May 11, 2021 Report Share Posted May 11, 2021 My hood release cable is broken. I don't see any replacements for models after '85. Is there a suitable replacement for an 87 that will work? The center latch pivot is in the same place as the earlier models. Just the inside pull handle is different.

DaytonaR2 Posted June 3, 2021 Report Share Posted June 3, 2021 I had just purchased a Bowden cable with a nice chrome handle on the end on Amazon. After cutting the external sheath to the correct length I used a cable "B" nut from Aircraft Spruce. Bend the excess internal cable over (90 degrees) after the "B" nut for a safety against ever slipping. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
