Fiero Front Hood Latch Cable Block

If your Fiero front hood (frunk) will not open because the main cable or the emergency cable has failed then it may be due to disintegration of the cable block at the latch rather than a broken cable. If the block crumbles then the cable sleeve has nothing to push against, causing the cable travel to be too short. This part replaces the sometimes difficult to find plastic part. This should be printed using PETG, ABS, Nylon or other plastic tough enough for outdoor use; PLA MAY work since it is enclosed in the trunk normally but I believe PETG would be a better choice. PRINT THIS PART WITH 100% INFILL TO ENSURE IT IS STRONG! You could probably use less infill yet why risk it for such a simple, small part that doesn't take too long to print.

The two cables reside in the large grooved sockets with the thin wire in the smaller groove; the metal latch cover holds the block in place using the slot on the end. Once in position on the car, wrap the block with a couple of nylon cable ties so that the cable will not fall out of the block for extra security because it is a real pain to open the hood without the cables working.
