    Good product, worth buying!
    I installed this on my 2000 Chevy Blazer. Some reviews said The wire was too long but mine was perfect. Install was a bit more involved than some of the reviews who said you could just use the old line as a guide to fish the new one through the fire wall. This is incorrect. The fire wall has a rubber grommet that prevents the new hardware to come through. In order to get this out you will need to remove some things out of the way. See photos. Old grommet comes out and the new grommet is on the new product. It slides from inside the car towards the engine to set the new grommet. Other than trying to find the 3 bolts that hold the e-brake on it wasn’t bad. On my 2000 Blazer it did not have bolts to take off part of the front grill which is needed. Just find the metal fittings and pull. I definitely recommend the use of a few YouTube videos that are out there.

      Replacement for OEM cable on 2000 Chevy Blazer. Once the stuff under the hood was moved out of way. Tied a pull string on hood side of old cable. Pulled old out and used pull string to pull new one in. Works like a charm. Should have done this years ago. Just be careful removing anything and reinstalling. Some body panels may become brittle with age. Was an issue I had but it was in NO WAY an issue of the new cable.

      Would recommend.

      2001 Sonoma:
      When you're installing this, remember to open the clips on the rad support and behind the washer bottle. You shouldn't have to COMPLETELY remove the washer bottle, but remove your air filter box and push the bottle out of the way a bit. Tie a length of wire to the end as you bring the old one through your firewall or you'll be taking apart the bottom of your dash and/or getting your kid to run the new one back through the hole. Annoying, as I don't have kids. The cable goes under the parking brake pedal, but I was able to just remove the two bottom bolts and slide the old cable out sideways and new one in. There's a new grommet for the firewall and a sleeve for where it passes under the brake lever bracket. You'll need 8mm (air intake hose clamp) 10mm and 13mm short sockets, a flat screwdriver and whatever your truck needs for removing the kick panel.
      Be prepared to realign your latch as removing it is the absolute best way to attach the cable without damaging the cable return spring. In fact, take this opportunity to replace and/or lubricate the latch with some white grease.

      The hood release cable was exactly what I needed. Works like a charm and relatively easy to replace. If you aren’t familiar replacing this part, I recommend watching some videos on how to do it as easy as possible. I’m no mechanic by any means, but I still managed to replace in it about an hour. The product does say it won’t work on a 2003 GMC Jimmy, but it does, so don’t let that fool you.

      Good replacement cable and it works like a charm. I wish the handle was replaceable then I would have kept the original that was in the truck ans simply use the cable with it. This one is cheap and doesn’t feel durable but it solved my problem. Now I have a working cable to open my truck hood. I recommend this product.
