[s-cars] hood release cable same on v8 as s6?

[forrest bradshaw]

hood would not open today, so I pulled on the cable with pliers, hood 
opened.  zip tied the cable to the front clip where the original clips 
broke from.  Hood would not latch on the drivers side after that.  I did
 not adjust the cable tension, I could not get the end clip off.  I 
worked it back and fourth a few times and tried to ease it into 
latching, no luck.  then the cable snapped at the pull handle in the 
car.

my cable has the clip on the end of it
