DIY Request: Hood release latch cable

Hello 1addicts,

Just wondering if anyone had a clue on where to begin with replacing the front portion of the hood release latch or "bonnet" as our euro friends call.

It is the cable from the plastic box to the drivers side of the car to the actual latch lock. I have the part, and I was thinking I just disconnect the plastic box part, then remove the latch (somehow) and fish it all through again. I'm just wondering if I'll be able to fish it all through the way it came with ease.

Let me know if someone has anything! I don't even think it is in the Bentley manual.
