What Retains the Hood Release Handle? Empty What Retains the Hood Release Handle?

Post by 73 ss wgn Wed Feb 07, 2024 5:35 pm

How is the hood release handle assembly supposed to be secured to the driver's side kick panel? Mine comes out with the handle when I pull it. I'm guessing there was some kind of clip here that I took off a long time ago when I pulled the kick panel to fix something. And if it's a clip, where can I get one?

Thanks.

It is, indeed, a clip.  I seriously doubt it just fell off.  I've removed a number of these and they are very tight (as in you need to literally pry them off with a screwdriver).  I may have one in a bag of misc. fasteners...will need to look.  Otherwise, I imagine you'll need to get one off a kick panel in a JY.  It looks like this:

UPDATE: Well, that didn't take long...found one for you. Send me your name/address and I'll mail it out to 'ya.
