97contique Posted April 17, 2008 Share Posted April 17, 2008 Hello. My boyfriend somehow snapped the cable to the hood and so now we can not figure out how to open the hood without damaging it. I have a body kit on it so that might help, he might be able to get on the ground and open the latch from the inside because there isnt any blockage with the kit but if that doesnt work does anyone have any other ideas? thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
98csvt28 Posted April 17, 2008 Share Posted April 17, 2008 I had this happen to my svt this winter. I ended up having to cut a couple of the 'bar' pieces out of the grille in order to get my 10mm socket to reach the hood latch bolts. If you look straight through the grille from the from you will see what parts you will need to remove in order to get access to the bolts. Once you remove the bolts you should be able to lift the hood up and disconnect the latch. Replacing the cable is a PITB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
