You can Select Your Vehicle to check if 65601-JK600 fits your vehicle.

Scribe a line around the latch to aid alignment during installation, then detach the latch retaining bolts to the radiator support and remove the latch. Disconnect the hood release cable by disengaging it from the latch assembly, and installation follows the reverse of the removal procedure. Adjust the latch so the hood engages securely when closed and the hood bumpers are slightly compressed. Remove the radiator grille by taking out the fasteners securing it, and disconnect the hood release cable from the latch. Remove the inner fender splash shield by taking out the mounting fasteners. Attach a piece of stiff wire to the end of the cable, then follow the cable back to the firewall and detach all the cable retaining clips. In the passenger compartment, remove the driver's side knee bolster and detach the cable from the hood release lever. Pull the cable and grommet rearward into the passenger compartment until the wire is visible. Ensure that the new cable has a grommet attached, then remove the old cable from the wire and replace it with the new cable. From the fender well, pull the wire back through the firewall, and installation follows the reverse of removal. Push on the grommet with your fingers from the passenger compartment to seat it correctly in the firewall.

A few drops of light oil or lock lubricant should be used.
