Hood release handle
Looking for a hood release cable handle for my 83 f150. Everything that would fit my truck online comes with the cable and is too expensive for just a handle. Any good source for just the handle?

What is your goal? Do you want a locking handle or just a handle? I see lmctruck has the whole complete cable and handle assembly for $32.95. Seems rather cheap to me, but I am cheaper than that sometimes. My Bronco handle was gone, I was left with just a rod with some threads on it sticking out. Not very handy to open the hood. So I just got a flat bar and cut it to the right length, drilled a hole in the middle, and then used two nuts threaded on the rod to hold it in place. I then wrapped electrical tape around it to give it some pizazz. Works good enough for me.
