I was packing up a grill for a customer and just noticed that the stock base XLR grill was designed originally to have a hood release by pushing the center emblem. I have a high school kid in the neighborhood that is a great maker. I am going to give him some parts and see if he can duplicate what the factory started but for some reason did not follow thru on. I don't know if they were going to use the emblem for the safety latch ? or the main latch. I am going for the main. It would have to be sort of hard to keep a bird or object from hitting it and opening the hood but that seems slim to small chance of that happening. What do you think.? 50$ for a kit? what price point would work? It would be more of a rare, batteries dead and you dont want to open the trunk by yourself and break off a corner item. Mostly an extra emergency release to get to the battery.
