possible hood release cable fix......for less than 2 bux!

my cable broke the other day and the replacement looked like a pain in the donk to replace. i started brain storming i wal mart and ran across the braided steel lines used for hanging large picture frames. it is incredibly close to the size of the original cable and was only $1.60 plus tax. putting the stops on the ends will take a little "ingenuity" but hell its only 2 bucks if it fails.
i'm gonna try to install it tomorrow and report back. if it doesnt work i may try a guitar string from a bass guitar. they seem to pretty strong too.
