I have a 1987 S10 blazer,and the hood release inside came out. How can I get the hood open without it.The cable I got through the grill, but doesnt have any wire in it. I THANK YOU  

Answer
Hi Dan,
May need a trip to a body shop.
If you have a friend with a similar truck, you can get a coat hanger, and with his hood open, see where you need to bend the wire, and feed it in to pull the release.

A salvage yard may also let you experiment.
