Product Details

The Genuine BMW hood release cable (part number 51238168163) is the center section Bowden cable designed specifically for E38 7-Series models. This OE-quality cable connects the underdash hood release mechanism to the hood latch assembly, providing reliable operation when opening your vehicle's hood.

Key Features:

  • Genuine BMW OEM part ensuring precise fit and factory quality
  • Center section cable that runs from the interior release to the hood latch mechanism
  • Replaces worn, stretched, or broken cables that make hood access difficult
  • Direct replacement for part number 51238168163
  • Restores proper hood release function with factory-calibrated cable tension

Over time, hood release cables can stretch, fray, or break, making it increasingly difficult or impossible to open the hood. This genuine replacement cable restores full functionality to your hood release system with the same quality and durability as the original equipment. Made to BMW's exacting specifications, this center Bowden cable ensures smooth, reliable operation for years to come.

Had the stuff, price was less than Hi performance outlets. Your line below; If I don't want to comment again after receipt, you will withhold customer care options should problems arise? Is that legal?

found product easy

Quick, easy and great price.

ok so far, after receiving item i am very satisfied.

So far so good! Just ordered the parts I needed for my car which I've been trying to find EVERYWHERE without success, until I arrived at autoplicity. Great price, and with a lifetime warranty I'm assuming great quality. I have faith that when the product arrives I will be highly satisfied.
