Replacing the Hood Release Latch in the grille

Hi all,

When I purchased my 190E 2.6, the latch that is inside the grille that allows one to open the hood was missing. Right now, I'm using a heavy gage wire in place of this latch.

I've decided to try to purchase a replacement latch, and I think I found one, but I'm not sure.

Could someone tell me if this is what I need?



If you need further clarification as to what I am talking about, please let me know.

Thanks!

Yep. That's te piece. You will need a needle nose and a center punch to get the old stuff out. Very easy fix.
