Re: Under-dash hood latch
That is pretty neat. I have an aftermarket grill with no latch access and have to crawl in between the grill and rad everytime I pop the hood. (which is a LOT)
So, I'm also interested to hear if anybody has used this.

Re: Under-dash hood latch
I believe this is brand new not even available yet. I just received an email from LMC about pre-ordering.

Sounds like cheap insurance to help keep the unwanted from under the hood. My first thought was how to open the hood when/if the cable breaks. Think I'll wait for some feed back and more information before I get all excited and invest.

You could always attach an "Emergency" additional cable, sort of like the inside trunk release.at least you could get it open if the other fails.

Re: Under-dash hood latch
I'd imagine the cable is just as stout as the one in every modern car that uses a cable release...

Re: Under-dash hood latch
i can understand the want for one (not for me personally, yet) but i think it would be better if someone could find a better way to mount the release handle inside. in the picture, it looks like it sticks out really bad. all steel dash and then a plastic handle. interested to see all of the creative minds on this board work their skills on these
