Default probs with jdm conversion

hello boys

as you can tell by the topic i have an problem with the conversion to the real front

everything is painted and ready for mounting but i cant mount it all becasue the the wire to the hoodopener(dont know what is called in english, dont this swedish will help ) is to short.
I have tought of this alot and the only thing that i can think of is to make it longer by usning a wirelock and a little bit of wire.

my question: how did you guys do? i didnt get the jdmwire(only the black cable)

cheers

Yes, the usdm fronts will be short in comparison to the jdm fronts. It's called the hood latch cable btw and you can either can the real one or use one from a DA integra.

Must get the cable and latch from a DA, which is a 1990-1993 Integra model.

I just finish my conversion and I used a cable from a 1988-89 honda accord. It is longer and will not have any problems.
