Hi,
Small issue that I really need help with. My lock mechanism to close and open the bonnet was playing up because the bonnet would not close and while in the process of fixing the issue, I kind of pulled on it a little too hard and the plastic guide on the lock cable broke of making it useless.. I then had to order a new cable however I have no idea how it is meant to be reinstalled onto the car. It was a pain to remove it as I had to pull the release cable with some force because there was something holding it in place and I couldnt see anything behind the headlight and the black trim that the cable was behind... my question is... does any one have the slightest clue on how the new cable will be installed onto the car? frown emoticon the lock mechanism has been fixed now but the cable is the new issue frown emoticon

How can I route it through this black panel? I cannot see anything behind it? frown

Thank you.
