[s-cars] hood latch

[Doug Landaeta]

Reach in from underneath front grill with hooked coat hanger to pull  
loose cable, therby opening hood. Replace two clips securing cable to  
lock carrier cross member. It's possible to thread zip-ties instead or  
new OEM clips. I've had success with both on several cars. Underbonnet  
hear eventually causes them to fail.
