not so good best in hood opening cable

I had to adapt it for work, the cable is much longer than the factory cable. Wouldn't work properly until I had to change the cable mount.

Pros
  • high quality materials used
Cons
  • communication with seller

Easy to repair by hand. for cable

We bought a scrap with a broken hood opening cable. The seller had a rope that protruded through the poles. :-( Easy DIY repair and now the hood latch works as it should! :-)

Pros
  • Officially only dealer parts are now available on the secondary market
Cons
  • Hard to say

There's a reason they sell so cheap!

Do not buy this cable! The inner cable itself has a lot of slack after installation and doesn't have enough tension or gap to pull the release lever far enough to open the hood. Pretty sad to hear about it after six hours of work by a professional mechanic on your '92 Accord. This is not an easy setup! This part is not a cable fault. The front bumper (both inside and outside) and headlights had to be removed, the inner lining as well as the inner fender lining. Then the hood latch. The original

Pros
  • New products, new solutions, new possibilities
Cons
  • I have no complaints about it, everything is fine
