Bonnet pull cable length?

uvs166 · May 8, 2013

As the title suggests does anybody know the length of the bonnet release cables.
I am looking at fitting one to a Series 3 and blanking the hole in the grill off so it cannot be opened without getting access to inside the cab.
There are two listed for the Defender that look like they might be long enough but pictures can be deceptive.
1 ALR9556
2 ALR7062
Any help appreciated.
Thanks.

I'm not sure of the length, however a defender engine bay at least looks longer than a series one. Therefore if it fits a defender, it should be big enough for a series. May require cutting down, or some creative routing.

7062 is for a disco so will be the longest ....

I have a spare alr9556 in the garage that I haven't gotten round to putting on. It's approx 69inches from cable tip to the face of the handle. Maybe 70 if I pulled it dead straight next to my tape measure. The tip of the cable is about 5 to 6 inches exposed before the sheath starts.

Thats great thanks. I think I need about 1.6m/64" so one of those will be great. If its too long I can always cut it down but stretching it would be a little more problematic.
Thanks again.
