Get it in red for an extra +10HPs

On a particularly cold morning my car wouldn't start so I tried to pop the hood so I could jump my battery and the pull broke right off my cable on my Honda Element. I was worried it was gonna cost me close to 50 bucks for a new cable as well as an afternoon of tinkering around upside down under my dash trying to route the new cable. Luckily someone mentioned this option and it was super easier and so far working great! The hardest part was getting the trim piece off so I could access the cable and then trimming some of the plastic off the cable so I could slip this knob over top and tighten it into the cable. Would definitely recommend this to any other Honda Element owners should your hood release pull snaps like mine did!

Pros
  • Thought it was missing but was so tiny was lostin bubble wrap. Found today
Cons
  • May not function properly if the latch mechanism is damaged or worn
