if youve ever noticed this cable & its plastic sheath run a torturious path to the latch. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)
Its restrained by 3 or 4 metal tabs to the tub (what do you call those?) 1st Q: did those have the blk plastic covers on them? 2ndQ: As the cable passes behind the headlight bucket it routes down and back up thru a smal hole in the front trunk support steel (73-74). Did that hole have a rubber Gromet OE? |

Did that hole have a rubber Gromet OE? Rich, I'll answer for a '72. No plastic tab covers - seems these were mostly used to cover tabs that hold wiring harness in place (smart idea!). No grommet in support member (not so sure THAT was a good idea, though I don't see any rub marks after 34 years). I'd be surprised if they changed these themes for '73-74 models, but can't answer for them deifinitively. Pat G |
