2017 Tacoma Broken Hood Latch Cable Fix

I have created this account and uploaded my first videos to Youtube for this post as this is perhaps the first meaningful contribution I can make to the truck repair world. My hood latch cable broke a few days ago. No tension on the release inside the cab. I apologize in advance for the poor video, I am not a trained expert in this. I just hope this saves people some time in the future. Cheers

I am sorry that I only started filming once the hood was popped, but if you have spent an hour trying to do this, I think you will be able to follow along.
