hey felllas, I cannot open my bonnet i snapped the cable near the pedal, and my bonnet wont open. :evil: do you guys know how to open it manually???? thanks

i know your pain heheee.... same thing happened to me about 6 months ago.... i unscrewd the grill and took it out at the front.. then if u can get a tool with a little hook on the end u get in there and try and pull the spring down hard as you can with a mate pushing the bonnet down... this will eventually pop it after a bit of playin around.... (or it might be trying to pull the little leave inside the spring out with it which releases it).. its there anyway.. u should see it with a bit of play what u need to do.... u could try and pull the cable in the cabin with a set of pliers... but make sure you go get your new cable first :P coz once shes open u wont wanna have to open it like that again.... good luck :mrgreen:

do i have to remove the nosecone or just the grill??? and is it hard to replace the cable???

inside the car, cut away at the cable with some nice snips (only cut the outer casing of cable), then get hold of the cable (while holding the casing) and pull it with pliers.....

just the grill... and its easy to replace the cable.. just fiddly

how much is it for the new bonnet cable and where from???

i paid like $35 from a holden rare spares shop in brisbane... probably could get non genuine ones cheaper then that though.... Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

thanks mate
