Fast shipping best in spare parts

part fits perfectly, no problem. Saved money. I will continue to use Revain whenever I need parts for my car. The cost of the part was lower than anywhere I looked. Now I know where to go when I need auto parts.

Pros

Cons
  • negative available

Saved our bacon. in cables

We have saved money by buying our own auto parts from Revain rather than locally or from a dealer. This item worked like magic, restoring our ability to open the front of the car and allow us to service it. We are satisfied.

Pros
  • Price
Cons
  • Some cons

Works great in spare part

I think I bought this for a 2003 Taurus, it was difficult to install but it was due to the Ford's design, you have to remove the inner fender trim to find where the wire goes through the firewall, you see securely tie the rope to the old cable when you pull it out, and then tie a string to the new part for ease of installation. When the new part was in it worked perfectly.

Pros
  • Everything great!
Cons
  • Functionality

like original OEM

. But be careful with it, it's cheap like original OEM. TIP: Make sure your hood is adjusted correctly, it should never be tight and you don't have to pull hard on this lever to remove the hood. Under the hood are height adjusters on each side. They are threaded racks with rubber stoppers on them. Adjust them by screwing them left or right as needed. After adjustment, the cable should easily detach from the hood and the hood should lift slightly.

Pros
  • handy
Cons
  • works well but not great
