Bonnet release cable not quick fix

Fits my 2006 Chevrolet Malibu. I only had to replace the plastic handle to pass the MOT, but they had to do a full replacement which takes a lot more time and labor.

Pros
  • cool product
Cons
  • piggy bank price

Cable sticks after 4 months

Cable sticks after 4 months. When you pull the handle to open the hood, the inner metal liner pops out and the cable doesn't move. After trying to get the cord/earbud back into the plastic case, the handle eventually fell off the mount.

Pros
  • Robust surface
Cons
  • Not the best

broken and incorrect bonnet release cables

this product arrived in a timely manner but when I was looking for 04 Saturn Vue this was the product that fitted. I haven't checked, maybe I should have. BUT! when it arrived not only does it not fit my car it is broken making it useless on both sides of me, very disappointed

Pros
  • stylish and modern design
Cons
  • updated

Doesn't fit 100% but seems to fit

I didn't find much of the installation than expected other than installing the shell on the hood latch itself. The hole was 3/8" but the cable was 10mm. In the absence of a 10mm socket, I bricked the hole with 3/8" until I could attach the cable. After reading other comments about capturing the line, I dripped oil from one end until it ran out the other. Then I let it hang for a day so the excess can drain off. I hope this prolongs his life.

Pros
  • Excellent overall
Cons
  • Doubtful
