Guys,I just had the desire to include an emergency release mechanism for the (you guys call it a hood) and the engine cover, just in case the cables broke. I found some good info here which was most helpful. I included a second cable pull down to the engine tin for the engine cover, which seems like some of you have done.For the hood I came up with a simple arrangement.I took a piece of wire coat hanger (nicely formed already into a straight with a finger hoop pull on one end)Then drilled a small hole just big enough for the coat hanger wire behind the wheel well bulkhead from inside the hood(came out near the headlight can area)This was directly in line with the cable release mechanism.I then pushed the wire hanger through the hole and hooked that end to the release, same place as the cable connection.It works fine and isn't easily seen unless you're under the car.Hope this is useful to someone.
