Review on Black Billet Aluminum Hood Latch Release Handle Cable Repair Kit For Honda CRV 1997-2006, Element 2003-2011, Ridgeline 2006-2014 And Civic 1996-2011 by Michael Heidelberg

Good alternative for now

Like everyone else my hood release handle was broken, and I didn't want to run a new one. I bought this and after finding a video on youtube (not hard to find), I installed it. Like everyone else says, the screw will strip and you may or may not get it to stay attached to the cable. Mine is very tight, and I've opened my hood 20+ times in the past week to test it. So far it's holding strong and it's a good alternative. If something changes I will update the review.
