Can any one tell me where the bonnet release cable goes on an LX? I can�t seem to find any bracket/hole for the handle to be mounted.
If any one has some pictures could you post them here please.

Cheers Paul.

Thanks for that FastEH I should have explained myself better, there�s nothing to mount it there, its been a while since I removed the cable but cant seem to find where the cable was mounted.

I think there should be a little bracket with two screws or bolts holding it into the lower part of the dash frame. Simple bracket with a 90deg bend in it, and the cable flange sits in that 'leg' that hangs down from the bend.

Thanks for the photo Josh, went to the local wreckers & picked up this bracket (looks a little bent, big hammer will fix it) as well as one set of high low horns (high's not working yet) & horn relay for 20 bills, bit of a win for once.
