Remove the radiator grill. Next remove the hood latch cover cylinder by unscrewing the mounting bolts and distinguish the position of the hood latch relative to the radiator support for the reassembly process. After that the mounting bolts and the latch assembly is to be taken off while the iterations of the hood latch whether it be horizontal or vertical is to be made if necessary. If the car has a hood cable disconnect it from the latch by pulling on the clips that hold the cable receptor to the small bracket and then unhook the cable from the lever. Installation on the other hand is in the reverse order that removal was done through the index marks that are put there to align the latch. Inside the cabin, pull the hood cable out of its clip in the lever and gently slide it out of the groove. Remove the cable end from the lever connection; free the lever assembly if needed-to do this, there's a retaining tab; to free it, pull it outwards while pushing it towards the firewall. Take a thin wire or string and fasten it to the end of the said cable. Starting from the driver's side the cab release cable should be removed from the hood latch by pulling the cable and following the cable surge toward the firewall and removing clips which hold the cable in place. Slide the cable towards you until you can see the wire/string; then, detach it from the previous cable and attach it to the new cable. Now, with the new cable in place, return the wire or the string through the firewall grommet in the passenger area up to the lever of the hood. When replacing the new cable make sure the cable housing is properly engaged in the retainer slot of the assembly. The rest of the installation proceeds in a backward order to the removal process that was explained above.
