Bonnet release cable

Finding it very difficult to find where this goes through bulkhead from engine compartment Any diagrams??
 
If old cable snapped then use the old cable to pull the new cable through the bulkhead or even easier p pull out old inner cable cut nipple off new cable feed through bulkhead from inside the car then either brase on a new nipple by the catch or do as I did and use good quality 30amp cheese block connected,its a 15 minute fix the cheeseblock way

Thanks might try that Not sure what cheese block is??
 
Hi. Terminal block will find it,I've always called it cheeseblock,no idea why:eek:
If I bought cycle inner cable (long enough) do you think I could feed it through original outer sheath or would it get stuck at right angle bend near bulkhead??
 
Sounds like a good cheap idea
Alternatively use a cable from a fuel flap release in a scrappies or another punto cable if they have one
 
Just fixed this by very simple solution
Unbolted bonnet catch and looped piece of wire round catch which I can access through grill and pull.
