Using a clip remover, detach the clips (G) and remove the grommet (H) from the body, then remove the hood opener cable. Take care not to kink the cable.
Install the hood opener cable in the reverse order of removal, and note these items:
- Check for damaged or stress-whitened clips, and replace them with new ones.
- Route the cable through the holes (I) in the body.
