Replacing hood release cable?

My hood release cable on out '94 EB Explorer (160,000mi) is broken. I've tracked down a replacement from these guys for about $23.

How difficult to replace is the cable? Looks like a pretty straight forward remove & replace.

BTW, I'm very familiar with wrenching.

Jug -

IF you can open the hood, it should be pretty straight-forward. Use the old cable to pull the new one thru the firewall.
