Bonnet release cable

(1/3) > >>

Darren:
My 110 has a new bulkhead, which is nice, but whoever fitted it neglected to fit a bonnet release cable. Instead, I've got a bit of wire sticking out of the grill :roll:

Now, I've just bought a new cable for a few quid off of ebay but I've no idea where it's routed to, or how. Can anybody tell me where it goes, or even provide a picture or two please?

Big Rich:
I broke mine on my disco 2 and got is stuck 5 times and got fed up taking it to the garage so I added bonnet pins.

Easy way to go if you get stuck.

Sorry I can't help where the cable goes.

I think it goes through the bulk head behind the speedo/above the brake pedal.

At least thats where mine is, but it didn't have one to start with...

BigSi:
When did they fit bonnet release cables? My 1986 90 hasn't got one (no signs of one ever been fitted)?  :-k  :-k  :-k  :-k

Darren:
Dunno. There was a minor facelift in '87 so perhps it was then?
