<< Enough is enough -- time for drastic measures again! I have ordered a
powerful solenoid, and I will reroute the cable to the passenger side, with
NO BENDS, and connect it to the solenoid. I will add a button in the hole in
the bracket where the handle used to go, on the drivers side, so I should
have NO MORE TROUBLE WITH THE #@&^#%# BONNET RELEASE!
The solenoid will be here in a day or so, and I will install it as soon as
it
gets here. In the meantime, if any one is interested, I have posted photos
of
the hole I cut for access on the Internet (I'm getting to where I like this
Internet thing!). After I install the solenoid, I'll post details of that on
there as well. If for nothing other than a laugh, you might want to check it
out. It's at: >>

Just don't forget to turn your headlamps off when you park the car. Dead
battery = no way to open the bonnet!
You should have some ready means to at least jump the solenoid outside of the
engine bay. Or a secondary cable.
How about a hydraulic bonnet release?! :-)
You could even run silicone fluif in it!
