i broke my bonnet release under my dash and instead of replacing the cable i was wondering if anyone had ever made a push button mechanism such as a boot or fuel filler release?

or maybe just relocating it to a stealth location somewhere else?

im running a solinoid like me door poppers off the same remote. . should work hopefully hahaha

sounds good Laney can u give me some tips?

i used a vs commodore boot release solenoid, momentary on switch. mounted the unit under the radiator support and hooked it to the catch, ran a power wire to the switch then to the solenoid, and away it went.. cost me 10 bucks for the unit, few bucks for the switch and bracket so well under $30

I would of thourght that the bonnet spring be to strong for the solenoid to pull back!?,...
well must be working ok you have one hocked up.........id like to run my cable under guard so you dont see it.....il check it out to see if it can be done!

I kept snapping cables on the 1000 so i just got a bit of welding rod and put it on the release leaver, though behind the grill then to a eye just above the headlight... I copied somebody.

cheers Tom and Beatie i will give these a go when i put my bonnet back on after the SR goes in so it may be some time, cheers guys

no worries, it worked a treat,
