The aluminum piece detaches from the plastic. It's just taking out those black rubber polka dots will take a while, and then reinstalling them
Yeah, that sounds painful. Maybe if I come across a cheap pair on eBay I’ll grab them. Need to do a master cylinder and booster tho soon, and those aren’t cheap.

Thinking about taking a break from washing windows and cleaning gutters today and installing the hood cables that came in. Both of my OE cables are looking pretty ratty, and I would rather get it done before one breaks.

Just did all the required XOutpost reading regarding this job and depending on the condition of the other two cables, I may just do the first one that goes thru the firewall to the hood lever. Pulling the bumper and headlights is a bit varsity for the amount of time I’ve got today!

I’m planning on upgrading my KC driving lights at some point, so that will be the time to remove the bumper bar, oil cooler and them the bumper. I really need a few days where I can put the X into heavy maintenance and get to the above, do the brake refresh, install the 90 deg t-stat I’ve had sitting around for a few months, and do an injector refresh. I used the 20 year old ones when I did the motor swap and it’s likely past time for new ones.
