Went to install LED turn signal bulbs today and noticed a wire "rope" neatly stowed and taped down inside the driver's side rear tail light fixture recess. Turned out it was a"pull" cable for opening the engine lid in an emergency. Only problem is that the engine lid must already be open in order to remove tail lamp fixture to access the pull cable. ?????

Coverage and how to read this overview
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

There's one upfront for the trunk lid as well, stowed behind the right headlight. Some people have relocated these pulls to other places where they can be more easily accessed if the battery dies. Karl
How did those LED turning signals workout for you? Any pics?
