Pull is straight to the right as the cable goes into a plastic housing and if you pull it at an angle, you can break the housing. Mine was already broken and I found a replacement at Pick n Pull for about $9 for two latches and the interconnecting cable. You can pull latches from any E36 I believe. I got mine from a 328i sedan. Good luck!  |
Thank you
I'll update the thread when I have more information.
