Hood release location?

[nsmall]

So my hood release has a curve to it yet I don't see exact location of where to mount it.

Does it mount to the area were there holes underneath the left side of the dash frame?

Thanks in advance

That's not a factory E Body part, so you're just going to have to make it fit somewhere

Thanks Alan.  Kind of the theme of this build.   

So it should mount somewhere on the dash frame?  Like as far to the right as I can get it?

THANKS

Did you do this yet?
I'm thinking of doing something similar when installing my inside cabin hood release upgrade on mine.

Usually tucked in pretty tight to the kick panel...

I would mount it using one of the factory dash holes as far Left as possible without interfering with the park brake

Thats what I did.  Hood opens fine and I can get to the ebrake so time to move on to the 101 other items on the list.  Thanks

@CudaMoparRay   If you want a pic I will post some.

Id like to upgrade mine too. Have pics of routing from interior to  latch? Thanks

@nsmall If you could post some pics would be great. Thanks

You sure about that? Looks identical to the one in my '73.

This is my first build so don't go by my pictures but this is what I came up with...

Check out the link Burdar sent....https://www.forebodiesonly.com/forum/threads/remote-hood-latch-cable.12201/

This makes more sense and I will post pics once I remount the actual handle as it looks like it will fit in the area the guy on forebodies posted in the link above.
