Allow me to introduce myself. My name is Jason Scott (JBS)! I think that it is the most ludicrous thing I've ever heard of in being concerned with someone wanting to break into the "trunk" of a DeLorean! Why would ANYONE want to do that? I've left my car(s) COMPLETELY UNLOCKED before and noone touches it (them), probably because they're too afraid of drawing attention to themselves with the doors going up! I seriously doubt there are ANY thiefs....lying in wait just trying to get the first glimpse off of this list on how to break into the hood/trunk of a DeLorean!! Besides, most owner's cars are securely tucked away in their garages.. I've got a "real" problem with this hood release cable and was hoping that someone knowledgeable here on the DML would have some wisdom for me. Is this list merely to discuss technical issues and whether or not there was a DeLorean on Miami Vice or is it here for some of the mundane....yet, also necessary problems that go along with DeLorean ownership....like broken hood release cables! I surely hope so!!!! I realize that there needs to be some censorship, but if someone wants to go to the trouble of "breaking into" your DeLorean....they're going to do it anyway. And I can be quite sure they won't take the time and delicacy of what I am asking from the DML subscriber's to provide me with. I hope this clears the air. I'd be happy to call one of the "vendors", but if I do that....then what do I really need this list for? If anyone is open to offering solutions to the problem. Please feel free to email me directly. We don't need this thread to last forever. It was my FIRST EVER post even though I've been a reader and DeLorean owner for the past 5 years! Thanks and I hope I am absolved now that my "identity" has been revealed!
