I'm looking for a hood latch assembly for a '90 Aerostar.
My wife's Aerostar has been parked for several years due to rear brake lines rusting through (and not enough hours in the day). Towards the end of last Fall I tried to open the hood and found the assembly was rusted up (Pacific North West humidity).
I tried all of the tips I found online about reaching through the grill and pulling on the "tab", etc. It won't budge. I tried drilling holes through the assembly housing, there's not much room to work between the grill slots. My next step will be to break out the grill and take a grinder to it.
Thanks,
Dan
