Bonnet release cable

[Barrie Robinson <barrie@look.ca>]

I have had three bonnet(hood) release cables break on me.  Usually after 
about 10-12 pulls.  The problem is the outer coiled wire sheath pulls out 
of the crimp at the handle end.   I have now bought a stock Canadian Tire 
cable which they offer as a generic choke/hood cable.  Problem is I cannot 
get to the engine side of the bulkhead to tighten up the nut without taking 
out the brake servo/clutch big thing. I am thinking of making a stand-off 
bracket inside the cockpit which would allow mounting from the 
inside.  Very simple and easy to get at.

Has anyone else encountered this problem?
