Just went through finding the emergency cable on my 98 when the latch failed. Had the front fender liner entirely out and could not get a good grip on the cable. It felt like it was caught on something. After a shop got the frunk open and replaced the latch (which had a sprung torsion spring) I removed the right headlight and found why I could not get to the cable. The loop on the end never made it to the tire well when the car was built:



If you have not yet done so, pull your headlight and relocate that cable NOW! I wasted two weeks on this.
