HOOD LATCHES
The hood is secured by two latches, installed under the hood locking platform, which engage with strikers on the hood.The hood safety catch is installed in the center of the hood leading edge and engages with a recess in the hood locking platform.

The hood latches are opened by a release handle on the lower part of the LH A pillar. Two hood release cables connect the hood latch release handle in series with the two hood latches. The two hood release cables are joined together by a connector block located on the front of the left inner fender.
