Im installing a new hood release cable. The cable inside the car.
I pulled the old one out with my gorrilla strength and now I cant find any drawings or post on the routing of it. Please help.

I did the same thing on mine and above all the hood was shut! Big pain in the a..! I had to unscrew the hood from it's hinges and force it open remove it alltogehter and then reroute the new cable! It is quite difficult to route the new one. Try looking at corvette central or zip corvette for some drawings, otherwise I can send you a photo from assembly manual if I will find it! Good luck with the repair!

As the black casing ends in the cabin the cable goes in very thin, I would call it a wire wrap. Keep trying to hit the center but you must do that by feel because you can't see nothing. It will go through just have patience and find the entrance to the wrap.
Good luck!
