Save your money they are the most useless "tool" I have ever seen. Do a search for emergency hood opening cables and make yourself a set. If you can't find any info with the search pm me and I'll get some of mine or you.

What good do cables do to the OP if his hood can't be opened now?

I’ve got one and to be honest, I can’t figure out how to make the thing work. Maybe you would have better luck than me though. I think I paid $20 shipped and I’d let it go for that.

Would you care to make a YouTube video showing how? Lol! There’s one posted now, but it’s pretty much worthless because they show how to use it with the hood already open.

Is your hood stuck right now? You can PM me. Thing about a video is what you need to do is obscured by the hood. You have to visualize how the latch mechanism moves when you pull the cable, insert the tool blind, then by feel, twist the tool after it is inside the hood to catch the latch and pull and twist at the same time. I realize it sounds a lot harder than it is.
