I relocated the front trunk emergency release cable today to the tow hole access point in the front bumper cover. I did this without removing the bumper cover.
To do this, I took out the passenger headlamp. Using a flashlight and long wire tie, I passed the wire tie over the bumper and out the cover's access hole. I then pulled the emergency cable through. Once there, I looped it and passed the cable's pull loop back into the the threaded tow hole for storage. Finally, I secured the looped cable to the bumper cover using a short piece of fishing line through the two tiny holes that usually tether the bumper cover plug to the cover itself.
I would have preferred to run the cable to the side marker lamp. I didn't do this for two reasons. The original cable was too short. When I added an extra length, I found the headlight tray wouldn't seat correctly.
