offdensen Posted February 23, 2019 Share Posted February 23, 2019 I am trying to remove the hood release knob that you pull when you want to open the hood. I am trying to remove the kick panel and it is stopping me, how do I go about doing this? First instinct is to pull hard but I'd rather not break anything while guessing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rivman Posted February 24, 2019 Share Posted February 24, 2019 (edited) I can’t get to mine at the moment, but I don’t think the handle separates from the cable. I believe you have to remove the cable from the latch and fish it through the firewall and the trim panel to get it out. I think the handle is “molded” to the cable? The illustrations I have from the assembly manual, and the parts manual, don’t show that the handle is removable. The second picture does show the cable comes apart under the hood, but I believe that is for ’71 only, and not on the ‘72? Sorry I can’t answer better, this is all I have available at this time.

bob71GS Posted February 24, 2019 Share Posted February 24, 2019 You are correct, the handle does not remove. It is the same for all 71-73's. Bob Bonto Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
