hood lever

[caljam]

Hello all.
I have a civic LX 99. I need help replacing the plastic end of the hood lever. I pulled too hard to open it and I broke it. I have no idea of how to change it.

Do you mean the handle thats on the inside of the car that hooks to the hood lever.
If so the only way to compltly replace is the replace the entire hood latch assembly.
If you dont want to do that you can put a t handle tap wrench on the end of it and it will work better than the stock handle click my build thread link and look in it i had to do the same thing to mine and i did the t handle tap wrench fix.

This doesn't belong in the DIY section, I've moved it to the tech section.

Just replace the whole thing, a new one is like $20

Thank you I will check with the dealer. for $20 it's worth it to replace the whole thing.
