Hood release cable problem!
So, my GT SPec Front Tower Strut Brace came in from Ryan@Forged and I installed it with not problems and closed my hood after finished. I decided to open it back up to take a pic and post here on MyG37. When I pulled the hood release it made a weird noise and the cable got separated from the release. I stuck it back in but the cable doesn't do anything anymore and there is a lot of play in it. I would take it to the dealer but with the new headlights and Stillen front splitter and everything else aftermarket on the car I don't want them to try and screw me. Please HELP, what do I do?

Had the same problem. Dealer tried to charge me 50 bucks for it. I took it to some place else and got it fixed in 10 min, free of charge.
You probably pinched the release cable when you were putting everything back together for the headlights. If you have a good relationship with the service guy at the dealership and if their tech is knowledgeable, they should just take care of it in a few minutes.

Yes, you can go from under the car if you have the means. Or try going through the wheel well.

Thanks Stoof! I'm so annoyed I want to go in the garage and do it now. But, I'll wait 'til the morning. Did you receive my headlights and CF housings? I was hoping to hear from you today to discuss.

As far as the LEDs in front of the turn signal... What color are yours, white or amber? Are they constantly on or do they blink with the signals?
