    I actually like the loop as it is....though the cable was a freakin' PAIN to thread down the support when I did the install....lol. I actually ended up having to drill a larger hole in order to fish the cable through.

    I used a paper clip folded into a small hook and snagged it when I saw it and pulled it out of the hole

    I would like one. Let me know when you have one ready and Ill send you some mulah.

    Great idea man. I have not gone with an aftermarket grill only because I did not want to mess with the t-handle. No way in hell would I put a hole in a nice grill too!

    Hey guys and gals I dont come here often anymore but I am going to post this picture of the latch mod. I used thin aircraft cable and some crimps to make these. Its not hard to find the materials Home Depot sells the stuff. Just thought Id post this here for future people needing this mod. Also I just found the video on my wifes computer so I will reupload to youtube.
