How do you remove and install the hood latch and release cable on Pontiac Grand Prix?

Inside the passenger compartment, that means taking off the trim panel and, if one must go even further, lifting up the carpet as well. Take out the screws that hold the latch handle in place and free the handle; most models have the handle on the floor to the left of the driver; however, most later models have the handle near the floor, below the level of the dash panel, at the driver's side. In the engine compartment, disconnect the cable guides and grommet, outboard side; depending on the year and model of your car, you may have to remove air cleaner and duct assembly (if equipped), headlamp access panel (if equipped), and battery. Remove the final few inches of the cable from the latch; in some later models, the cable can be popped out of the latch very simply by unplugging the left headlight. Take a piece of string or thin wire of a proper length and join it to the end of the cable Pull the cable into the passenger compartment. Screw or join the string or wire to the new cable and then pull it back into the engine bay. Assemble the backplate with the cable and install the latch screws, and the trim panel. There is a groove surrounding the latch to assist in alignment when reinstalling, then the bolts that hold the hood latch to the radiator support are to be removed to take out the latch; on some vehicles, one will have to remove the front bumper fascia to access the hood latch. Pull the Hood release cable by taking out the cable from the latch carrier. Installation is the opposite of removal; set the latch so it's snug when the hood is closed and the auto hood bumpers are mildly squeezed.
