The plastic bracet that holds the bonet release handle above your right leg when in the drivers seat...mine is broken :devil: What are the chances of finding one? lol, it's not DESPERATE, but currently it's held in place with some zip-ties...the cable may also need replacement, as it feels very tight when you pull the handle, though that's more than likely caused by the current setup.

If you have one spare and don't mind parting with it, name your price :P

Thanks.

The bracket comes attached to the cable (as far as I know), I dont think that there is any way to get it off... You will probably have to buy a new cable (from Nissan - meaning $$$$).

Otherwise, just make up a bracket yourself to suit out of sheet steel or alloy, drill some holes in it, paint it black and Bob's your uncle. :)

Hi Troy, as bullet32 has said, the cable is attached to the plastic bracket and a new cable needs to be sourced in order to fix this problem, it is also a major f**k around and does cost a few bucks for something thats not a big issue!

Just always remember to push the cable back when you pop the bonnet and you'll be set!

      I'm so far behind in the jobs I have to do at both work and home (including car) that I have become immortal. There's simply no way that I can die now.

      Each to their own I guess  Me, I put just as much time into cleaning inside of the cars as I do on the outside As for getting wet, it is really no different than steam cleaning the carpets at home, apart from the cars carpet dries alot faster than the house, again, I only do it in the hotter months and leave the car opened up for a few hours As I only do it yearly, it is just before I do the diff and gearbox service, so I clean the carpets, then it's up on stands, wheels off, service, clean the undercarriage,  grease the bushings and do a nut and bolt check on everything  Disclaimer: I typically had all the time in the world to kill when I was working 🤣, so spending a full day or 2 cleaning, serving and "looking at stuff" was,  easily achievable, and a fun mental therapy day As for time to kill, I retired last Wednesday, so apart from my physical training, my days are filled with lots of random jobs around the house and garden...."Idle hands are the Devils something something" I am also buying a new house sooner rather than later, I'm actually looking at a potential property tomorrow, I'm looking forward to getting a car hoist as I'm starting to get to old to crawl around under a car, I can only imagine all the undercarriage cleaning and looking at stuff when that gets set up

      Yeah, I'm not interested in wetting the carpets, and I don't care about brown dirt/dust that lives deep in the pile or underneath. It's not like I crawl around on them in my birthday suit or eat dropped food off them (because there is never any open food in my car). The seats are alcantara (cheap Chinese imitation alcantara, to be sure!) with barely 1" of foam pad behind the surface. That's not getting wet either. Any car that I would be happy to get the interior wet, I would not care to put the effort into.

      We have one that holds 2.8L of water. On floor carpet that hasn't been touched in 2 or 3 years, will take a minimum of 2 fills of the tank to do a bedroom, and that's going AROUND the bed.   In the cruiser, I used an ENTIRE 2.8L tank, just on the front passenger footwell. But it had some fungus growing, and had been full of mud from being used as a 4WD for many years. I can do that floor again, and it will still pull mud out. However, the water now only looks dirty, not pitch black and leaving full sludge in the bottom of the tank it sucks back into. Oh, and, this is about a $1500 unit.
