RE: [Chrysler300] "F" hood release

["David Schwandt" <finsruskw@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Some one needs to find a fix for this.
I am in the same boat having to "stick it" every time I want to get under
the hood.
Anyone know of a way to replace the wire in an existing cable assly. By the
way, mine was an NOS unit when
I installed it back in '85.

I have received a few suggestions of how to open the hood until a fix is
done.  The fix I came up with was a wooden paint stick.  It is long enough,
sturdy enough and won't scratch the paint.  Sliding it in the small space
between the hood and grille, it works great.  I carry that in my tool box.
But with the cable so tight, it doesn't look right and I figure I'm on
borrowed time.  The next time it will be too short.
